Question

Four times the sum of a number and -3 is 4 more than twice the number. write and solve an equation to find the number

Answer 1

Let x be the number

sum of a number and -3 will be (x - 3)

4 more than twice the number will be (4 + 2x)

Now, to put all that together into an equation you can solve:

Answer 2

4*(x - 3) = (4 + 2x)

Solve this for x.
