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.

The answer I believe would be 2Y + 3x=6
<u>Answer:</u>
Amount collected in 2012 = 3.49
and in 2013 = 3.35
<u>Explanation:</u>
Let x be the baggage fees collected in 2013 and
y be the baggage fees collected by airlines in 2012
From the given question we can obtain two equations as follows:
x + y = 6.84 $ - eq 1
and
y = 0.14 + x
as fees in 2012 exceeds that in 2013 by 0.14$
Now, solving these two equations by substitution,
we substitute y = 0.14 + x in eq 1
and solve for x,
which gives us x = 3.35 and
substituting this value in eq 1
we get y = 3.49
