14. Twelve more than seven times a number equals the number less six

The number is -3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up an equation:

Variable n = number

12 + 7n = n - 6

Assuming the question is solve for n, isolate the variable:

Subtract n from both sides:

12 + 6n = -6

Subtract 12 from both sides:

6n = -18

Divide by 6 on both sides:

n = -3

Check your work:

12 + 7(-3) = -3 - 6

12 - 21 = -3 - 6

-9 = -9

Correct

a^2+b^2=c^2

7^2+24^2=c^2

49+576=625

sqrt625=25
