Let x represent the number.
6 times a number is 14 more than that number.
My choices are:
a) 6x +14=x
b) 6=14x + x
c) 6x=x =14
d) 6x = 14x
Everytime I do this I come up with a different answer. Help !!

Shouldn't the answer be this:
6x=14+x or this
6x=x+14
I hope this helps!

6x = 14 - x
6 times 2 is 14 more than 2.
I can also solve it for you.
6x + x = 14
7x = 14
x = 14 / 7
x = 2
Now, substitute it for x.
6(2) = 14 - 2
12 = 12
Now, the statement becomes:
6 times 2 is 14 more than 2.

The answer is not c) becaues it says 6 times a # equals a # equals 14.
The answer is not d) because it says 6 times a # equals 14 times that #.
The answer is not a). The answer is not b). The answer is 6x=14+x.
I do not know what x is equal to.

"9 below 17 cases a range" Take 17 cases the determination, then subtract 9. 17x - 9 "is" interprets to "=" "5 cases that particular same determination" ability 5x. placed all of it jointly, and also you get 17x - 9 = 5x Going a step added, you are able to particularly clean up this. 17x - 9 = 5x 12x - 9 = 0 12x = 9 x = 9/12 = 3/4

6x = x + 14 is the correct answer.which does not appear in your list unless there's an error in c) and the last "=" is in fact a "+" . !

6x=x+14
1:move x to the left which gives you 5x=14
2: divide by 5 which gives you x= 2.8
