Don’t know if there’s much of an equation for it, but I guess the best way to write it out is 10 + x = -18. Then, you would subtract the 10 from both sides in order to isolate the x. So then you’re left with x = -28. So -28 is your answer.
The situations can be represented by the exponential function f(x)=60x1.15^x

Answer:
n = -33
Step-by-step explanation:
Let n = number
Sum of a number and 9
(n+9)
is tripled
3(n+9)
the result is six less then twice the number
2n-6
3(n+9) = 2n-6
Distribute
3n+27 = 2n-6
Subtract 2n from each side
3n-2n +27 = -6
n +27 = -6
Subtract 27 from each side
n+27-27 = -6-27
n =-33
5(2x-3)+7
distribute the 5 to the 2x and -3
10x-15+ 7
combine like terms -15+7
10x-8
