USING C FOR VARIABLE
Nnesha (nnesha):
difference means subtract
let number = C
Nnesha (nnesha):
times means multiply now translate
OpenStudy (anonymous):
C-4
Nnesha (nnesha):
difference of a `number times 4` and 7 equals 6
number times 4 = ?? how would you translate this

C*4
Nnesha (nnesha):
yes right so the difference of 7C and 7 equals 6
translate into the equation
Nnesha (nnesha):
4C*
OpenStudy (anonymous):
7(CX4)=6
Nnesha (nnesha):
difference means subtract
so the difference of x and y would be `x-y`

7(C-4)=6
Nnesha (nnesha):
read the sentence it's not the difference of a number `and` 4
Nnesha (nnesha):
the DIFFERENCE of a number times 4 `and` 7
OpenStudy (anonymous):
c(4x7)=6
Nnesha (nnesha):
\[\textrm {the difference of a (number times 4) |AND| 7 =6}\]

Can you ELABORATE
Nnesha (nnesha):
`here is the hint
difference of 4 `AND` 6
use the `and` hint
Nnesha (nnesha):
the difference of a number times c `and ` 7 = 6
a number times c = 4c
so the difference of 4c `AND` 7 = 6
Nnesha (nnesha):
how would you translate the difference of 4c and 7?
remember difference means subtract
OpenStudy (anonymous):
4c-7
