The word "is" in this kind of problem typically means "=", so we know that something =-8. Since we're finding the number, we should start with the closest thing in the phrase given to that number. In this case, it's 3/4x. Finally, since we have the "14 less than", we need to add that in. Your answer is:

3/4x-14=-8. Now we can just solve!
       +14   +14

3/4x=6.
*4/3   *4/3

x=8.

This is because experiences and observations make the individuals realize that certain rules are unfair and unjust so they come up with their own ideas and beliefs. However, sometimes their morals and ethics may breed conflicts and disagreements as not everyone agrees to it.
