Please give me a an answer to this question! "15 subtracted from the product of a number and 4 is -59." What's the equation?

Question

I need the equation for this question.

Answer 1

Let x be a number. Product of x and 4 is written as 4x ( Product is multiplication result of 4 and x)

If 15 is subtracted from 4x, it can be written as 4x -15 ( 4x minus 15)

The difference of the above expression is given as-59

Hence, the above information could be written as 4x-15 = -59

and the correct linear equation is "4x-15+59=0"

(equation arrived by bringing -59 to left hand side of the equation)

Answer 2

product is multiplication

subtracted from is subtraction

is is equal to

a number is the unknown (Can set it as x in this problem)

4x-15 = -59

Answer 3

Let's let "n" be "a number". The product of a number and 4 is then 4 times n or "4n". 15 subtracted from that is "4n - 15" and since that is "-59" then:

4n - 15 = -59
