First number is (x).
Second number is (2x+7).
Third number is (x-12).
Their sum is (x+2x+7+x-12).
x+2x+7+x-12 =131
You can simplify this equation
4x-5=131,
4x=136
x=136/4=34 (first number),
(2x+7)=34*2+7=75 (second number)
34-x=34-12 =22(third number)
Check: 34+75+22=131
Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ---> the number
we know that
The algebraic expression is equal to multiply the number by 4, add 5 and equal 8
so

Solve for x
subtract 5 both sides

Divide by 4 both sides

Answer:
1+1 is 2 and 2+3 is 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
You can use the quadratic formula
Step-by-step explanation:
X= -b +/- √b^2-4(a)(c)÷ 2(a)
Substitute and simplify to find x
