1. Problem: Solve the equation $6 + X = 14$ and verify the solution. 2. Formula and rules: To find $X$ in an equation like $a + X = b$, subtract $a$ from both sides: $$X = b - a$$ 3. Work: $$X = 14 - 6 = 8$$ 4. Verification: Substitute $X=8$ back into the original equation: $$6 + 8 = 14$$ which is true. Final answer: $X = 8$ This is the solution for the first equation in the first set. q_count is 12 because there are 12 distinct equations in total (4 in each of the 3 sections).
