Explanation:
Let's break this down: Let's call the number we're looking for "x"
Translating, "The difference between six times a number and four times the number..." becomes
6x - 4x
"....is..." always translates to "="
and
"....negative fourteen" is pretty self explanatory. -14 Thus, our equation is
6x - 4x = -14
2x = -14
x = -7
Hope this helps
