Let us assume the unknown number to be = x
Now let us get down to forming the equation
2x - 8 = x + 20
2x - x = 20 + 8
x = 28
The unknown number in the question is 28. I hope that this is the answer you were looking for and it has come to your help. The correct option is option "A".

Let the number be x.   If it is doubled = 2x.

8 less than a number doubled :           2x - 8

20 more than the number:      x + 20

2x - 8 = x + 20

2x - x = 20 + 8

x = 28 
  
The number is 28.  A.

Answer:

x = 30.

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle next to the 60 degree angle = 180 - 60 = 120 degrees (adjacent angles are supplementary).

Let the angle  just above 3x be y.  The sum of 3x and y = 120 degrees (as opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal).

We have the following equations.

3x + y = 120............(1)

2x + 90 + y = 180

2x + y = 90.............(2)

Subtracting, (1) - (2):

x = 30.
