Answer:
a = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
2(a-7)=a+4
Distribute 2 into left side: 2a -14 = a + 4
subtract a from both sides 2a-a-14 = a+4-a
Simplify: a - 14 = 4
Add 14 to both sides: a - 14 + 14 = 4 +14
Simplify: a = 18
If wanted, plug a into original to double check work:
plug in: 2 (18-7) = 18+4
do parenthesis first: 2 (11) = 18+4
do multiplication : 22 = 18+4
additions: 22 =22
a = 18 is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:
5-(-6) -4-(-9)
11/ 5
Answer:
Let X be the number.
Twice the number would be 2x
The difference between the two, would be subtraction, so you would subtract 4 from 2x
The equation becomes 2x-4 = 16
Now solve for x:
2x-4 = 16
Add 4 to each side:
2x = 20
Divide both sides by 2:
x = 20/2
x = 10
The number is 10.
