According to the given statement, the equation that is described is:
[tex]7x-6=2[/tex]You can read it, six less than the product of seven and a number (in this case that number is x) equals two.
Now, use this equation to find x:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 7x-6=2 \\ 7x=2+6 \\ 7x=8 \\ x=\frac{8}{7} \end{gathered}[/tex]x has a value of 8/7.
