The number that twice the sum of it and negative seven is eight is 11.
<h3>How to find the number ?</h3>
Twice the sum of the number and negative seven is eight. The number can be found as follows:
let
the number = x
According to the word expression, twice the value of the addition of x and minus seven is equals to 8. Hence, we will find the value of x in the equation formed from the words expression.
The variable x is the required number.
Therefore,
2(x + (-7)) = 8
2(x - 7) = 8
open the brackets
2(x - 7) = 8
2x - 14 = 8
add 14 to both sides of the equation
2x - 14 = 8
2x - 14 + 14 = 8 + 14
2x = 22
divide both sides by 2
x = 22 / 2
x = 11

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
3(7t - 5) - 2t = 4
3*7t - 3*5 - 2t = 4
21t - 15 - 2t = 4 {combine like terms}
21t - 2t - 15 = 4
19t - 15 = 4 {Add 15 to both sides}
19t = 4 + 15
19t = 19 {Divide both sides by 19}
t = 19/19
t = 1
So, Increase = New Number - Original Number. Therefore, Increase = 283 - 147 which equals 136.
136 = 283 - 147.
Then you want to divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100.
136/147 = 0.92
0.92 * 100 = 92.
Final Answer: The employee count has increased by 92%. I hope this helps.
X/5 - 11 = -13
x/5 - 11 (+11) = -13 (+11)
x/5 = -2
x/5 (5) = -2(5)
x = -10
-10 is your number
