Answer: 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up an equation

Based on the question, we can determine that 4x = 22 + 2x where x in is the number

"Four times a number" -> <u>4x</u>

"was" -> <u>=</u>

"22 greater than" -> <u>22 +</u>

"twice the same number" -> <u>2x</u>

Put the underlined parts together to get <u>4x = 22 + 2x</u>

Solve equation

Rearrange/collect like terms to solve for x by subtracting 2x from both sides

4x = 22 + 2x

2x = 22

Solve for x by dividing each side by 2

2x = 22

x = 11

Final Answer

x = 11

Answer:

11

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be x

4x = 22+2x

collect like terms

4x - 2x =22

2x = 22

divide both sides by the coefficient of x which is 2

2x/2 = 22/2

x = 11

the number is 11

Point A is located at (−1,−5). The midpoint of line segment AB is point C(2,3). ​ What are the coordinates of point B ?
tamaranim1 [39]

For a segment AB, the coordinates of the middle point C are:

xc=(xa+xb)/2,

yc=(ya+yb)/2.

Now, you know points A and C. Thus we get:

xb=2×xc-xa

yb=2×yc-ya

With numerical values:

xb=2×2-(-1)=4+1=5

yb=2×3-(-5)=6+5=11

Answer: B(5, 11)

Clarence sells yearly subscriptions to a particular magazine. He sells at least 10 and no more than 25 subscriptions each week.
kobusy [5.1K]

We have that Clarence sells yearly subscriptions to a particular magazine.

He sells at least 10 and not more than 25 subscriptions each week.

The function f(t) = 48t represents the amount of money earned for selling t subscriptions each week.

So;

10 ≤ t ≤ 25

f(t) therefore is 48(10) ≤ f(t) ≤ 48(25)

This gives: 480 ≤ f(t) ≤ 1200

So the amount of money earned f(t) for selling t subscriptions each week is all multiples of 48 between 480 and 1200, inclusive.
