Eight subtracted from 4 times a number is equal to 4 less than 6 times the number. Eight subtracted = - 8 4 times a number = 4x is equal to is = 4 less than = - 4 6 times the number = 6x 4x - 8 = 6x - 4 Add 8 to both sides: 4x = 6x + 4 Subtract 6x from both sides: -2x = 4 Can you divide 4 / -2? @kittycat123

@picachu341 Don't give out direct answers without explanation. The answer you gave was wrong also.

OpenStudy (igreen):

Yes, so that's your answer to the first question. @kittycat123

OpenStudy (igreen):

2(2w - 6) = 6(w - 6) + 14 Distribute 2 and 6 into both parentheses: 4w - 12 = 6w - 36 + 14 Add: 4w - 12 = 6w - 22 Add 12 to both sides: 4w = 6w - 10 Subtract 6w to both sides: -2w = -10 Can you divide -10 / -2? @kittycat123
