Answer:
The number is 5
Step-by-step explanation:
If we need to find the hidden number, Which for simplicity's sake we will denote as "n", lets first write out the equation.
"2 x [n + (-3)] = 4"
We can work through this problem backwards. if we need two times the sum of "n" and (-3) to get to 4, the only number that can be multiplied by 2 to get a product of 4 is 2, so "n" + (-3) must equal 2. so, From here, we can figure out that since 5 + (-3) equals 2, "n" Must equal 5. so, if we plug in 5 for "n" the equation looks like this:
"2 x [5 + (-3)] = 4"
So, since the equation makes sense, the answer is, "n = 5"
Answer: Union of two sets.
Explanation: "An element is in the union of two sets if it is in the first set, the second set, or both. The symbol we use for the union is ∪ . The word that you will often see that indicates a union is "or".

The correct answer for this question is this one: "<span>147"</span>
Here's how to solve this problem.
Let <span>x = number of mystery books on the shelf </span>
<span>Let 3x = total number of books on the shelf </span>
<span>we are told that </span>
<span>x/5<10<x/4 </span>
<span>multiply by 20, </span>
<span>4x<200<5x </span>
<span>which means that </span>
<span>40<x<50 </span>
<span>So the number of mystery books can be any number between 41 and 49.
In other words, the possible total number of books could be three times the above numbers, 123, 126, 129,.... </span>
