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

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

Yep, so that's gonna be your answer.
