Now subtract, then add.
4 - 2 = 2 then add 12.
2 + 12 = 14.
Answer is 14.
Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
Edited answer: The number is: "- 6" .
_______________________________________________
8 (8 + x) = 16 ;
in which "x" represents the number for which to be solved ;
8*8 + 8*x = 16 .
Edit: 64 + 8x = 16 ;
Subtract "64" from each side of the equation:
Edit: 64 + 8x − 64 = 16 <span>− 64 ;
to get: 8x = </span>- 48 ;
Divide EACH SIDE of the equation by "8" ; to isolate "x" on one side of the <span>equation ; and</span> to solve for "x" ;
Edit: 8x / 8 = -48 / 8 ;
Edit: x = - 6 .
______________________________________________
The number is: "- 6" .
______________________________________________
Let us check our answer, by plugging in "-6" for "x" in the original equation:
______________________________________________
8 (8 + x) = 16 ;
→ 8 [8 + (-6) ] =? 16 ?? ;
→ 8 (8 − 6 ) =? 16 ?? ;
→ 8 (2) =? 16 ?? ;
→ 16 = ? 16 ?? Yes!

Answer:
The number is : x = 37
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve this question, we may set up a proportion.
If the original number is 100%, 59.94 would be 162% of the original, as it was increased by 62%.
so
59.94 → 162%
x → 100%
solving the proportion gives you
59.94 × 100 = 162 × x
x = (59.94 × 100)/162
x = 5994/162
x= 37
Thus, the number is : x = 37
