Carmen has 18 cars available to rent.

Let C be the number of cars she would have left after renting R of them.

Write an equation relating to C to R Then use this equation to find the number of cars she would have left after renting 14 of them.

The equation relating C to R is: C = 18 - R

Substitute R = 14 into the equation:

C = 18 - 14
C = 4

Therefore, Carmen would have 4 cars left after renting 14 of them.
