Let's take another look at the question:
If 4 is subtracted from twice a number the result is 10 less than the number.
let x = the number
"if 4 is subtracted from" is the same as
-4
"from twice a number" is the same as
2x
so put them together,
2x-4
"the result is"
=
2x-4=
10 less than
-10
the number
x
2x-4=x-10
now we find x
subtract x from both sides to get
x-4=-10
add 4 to both sides to get
x=-6
to check, plug in the value of x into the original equation
If you have any further questions, just ask me

First we can make an equation out of this statement. 2x-4=x-10 and now we will solve it 2x-4=x-10 2x-x=-10+4 X=-10+4=-6

You are paid 82.50 for 7 1/2 hours of work.what is your rate of pay
lana [24]
Hello! So we are talking about $82.50 earned for 7 ½ hours of work. 7 ½ is equivalent to 7.5. To find the rate of pay, all you have to do is divde the amount earned by the number of hours worked. 82.50/7.5 is 11. Let's check it by multiplying to make sure it works. 11 * 7.5 is 82.5. 82.50 = 82.5. There. Your rate of pay is $11 per hour.
