<h3>20 subtracted from three times a number is 6 more than the number. Then the number is 13</h3>
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
<em><u>Given statement is:</u></em>
20 subtracted from three times a number is 6 more than the number
We can translate the sentence into algebraic expression
Let "a" be the unknown number
Then,
20 subtracted from three times "a" is 6 more than "a"
Which means,
3a - 20 = 6 + a
3a - a = 6 + 20
2a = 26
Divide both sides by 2
a = 13
Thus the number is 13
Answer:
1.) He still owes $100 of debt
2.) 1 rose would be .75 cents and 1 carnation would be .90 cents
3.) C 8 and 3/8
Step by Step explanation
(/ means divided by in the first 2 equations but / in the last question is for the fractions.)
1.) _(1,500 / 3 =500. 1,500 - 500 =1,000 / 5 =200 x 3 =600. 700 - 600 =$100)
2.)_(1.50/2 =.75 cents. 2.70/3 =.90 cents.)
3.) i first added the fractions ( i equalized them) then i added the whole numbers (the u in the equation was to separate the whole num. and fraction )
Before i equalized it: (6u3/4 + 1u1/8 = 7u1/8 + 1/8 = 8u3/8)
After i equalized it: (6u6/8 + 1u1/8 = 7u1/8 + 1/8 = 8u3/8)
Answer: LOL
Step-by-step explanation:
X = 40, Y = 15
40(2) + 15(2) = 80 + 30 = 110 :)
