Let x= a number Difference between that number and 4 is 19. x-4=19 x=23

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

Let x = "a number" So when we say "The difference of a number and 4" we mean x-4 Also, when we use the word "is", we mean "equals" (ex: "x is 2" means x = 2) So put all this together to get the translation of x-4 = 19
