There is no number I can think of that would make the statement untrue.
The result of this when you subtract 83x from both sides leaves you with P = Q.
Unless you know differently, the equation says that P must equal Q no matter what x is. If there is such a condition, it is not obvious.
Answer:
The number is 7
Step-by-step explanation:
certain positive number: x
x is multipled by 4:
4x
result of this is subtracted from the original number:
so original number minus 4x,
x - 4x
the result is 21 less than 0, this means negative 21
x - 4x = 0 - 21 = -21
do algebra:
-3x = -21
multiply both sides by -1
3x = 21
divide both sides by 3
x=7
(certain positive number: x) is equal to 7
Step-by-step explanation:
3.15m or 3 3/20m
