3x - 10 = x + 4 <== ur equation
three times a number.....3x...with the x representing the number
ten less....3x - 10
is the same as...means =
that number (x) increased by 4....x + 4
so we have 3x - 10 = x + 4...
3x - 10 = x + 4
3x - x = 4 + 10
2x = 14
x = 14/2
x = 7....and that number is 7
You got it on the correct spot good job and good luck hun
Answer:
b
Step-by-step explanation:
Simply write what you read!
"<span>Write an expression"
This means no equal sign.
"for the calculation 5 times the number 25"
5 x 25
"and then subtract the quotient of 14 and 7"
- 14/7
Combine them together and you get:
5 x 25 - 14/7
Remember to use your Order of Operations, aka PEMDAS
You would multiply and divide the numbers first, and then subtract the product (answer to a multiplication problem) and quotient (answer to a division problem)!</span>
