I said, "$14,000 shy of being double."

I will not use actual numbers but let's let X represent the house's value when we bought it in 2014. Let's let Y represent X doubled.

2X = Y

If Z is the current value, we will get Z by subtracting $14,000 from Y.

Y - $14,000 = Z

In other words:

2X - $14,000 = Z

Do you follow?
