for coordinates if they write x=4: what does it mean

x = 4 means what it says. The "x" coordinate of some point in an x-y plane likes above the x=4 point of the x-axis

If one is subtracted from five times a number, the difference is one hundred fourteen.

Does anyone now I need help

Magic, you need to post a new question, rather than follow on an existing thread.

I'm not sure, but I think the question means that the _answer_ after subtracting 1 is 114.

If so, then start by asking yourself what number leaves 114 when you subtract 1 from it. Got that?

Now what number do you have to multiply by 5 to get that? (Which is the same as saying: divide that number by 5.)

When someone writes "x=4" in the context of coordinates, it means that the x-coordinate of a point is equal to 4. In a Cartesian coordinate system, every point is identified by its x-coordinate (horizontal position) and its y-coordinate (vertical position).

To understand the meaning of "x=4," you can imagine a horizontal line called the x-axis. The point with an x-coordinate of 4 lies on this line. The value of y is not specified in the given notation, so the point could be anywhere vertically.

In terms of graphing, if you were to plot the point on a graph, you would locate it by moving 4 units to the right along the x-axis and not changing your position on the y-axis.
