3.
What to do?
X is the answer (the unknown)
So, X is how much he spent on the shirt
The shirt, X, was $14 less than twice the shoes.
4.
2x - 14 = 42
5.
2x -14 +14 = 42 +14
2x = 56
2x/2 = 56 /2
X = 28
6.
Now add the bow.
Giacomo spent $28 on a shirt.

b is another unknown, but we're not asked to find it.
b is 3 more than 4 times X
is =, more + (key words)

9.
Therefore ...
4x + 3 = b
4x + 3 - 3 = b - 3
