Answer 2

Answer: Hello mate!

"four times a certain number increased by 6 is equal to 94"

is equivalent to: 4*x + 6 = 94

where x represents the number.

Now we would want to find the value of x.

4*x + 6 = 94

4*x = 94 - 6 = 88

x = 88/4 = 22

then the value of the number x that makes the statment true is x = 22.
