1/6x = 2.....multiply both sides by the reciprocal 6/1
(6/1)(1/6)x = 2(6/1)
1x or just x = 12
Answer:
The number is -2
Step-by-step explanation:
12 less than 7 times a number can be express as follows,
let the number = a
7a - 12
According to the question the number 7a - 12 is equals to 32 less than the product of - 3 and the number.
32 less than the product of -3 and the number can be express below.
-3a - 32. Therefore,
7a - 12 = -3a - 32
collect like terms
7a + 3a = - 32 + 12
10a = -20
divide both sides by 10
a = -20/10
a = -2
The number is -2
