Answer:

The number is = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Twice the sum of a number and 2 is equal to three times the difference of the number and 4.

To find the number.

Solution:

Let the number be = x

The equation can be now written as:

2(x+2)=3(x-4)

Solving for x

Using distribution:

2x+(2\times2)=3x-(3\times4)

2x+4=3x-12

Adding 12 both sides.

2x+4+12=3x-12+12

2x+16=3x

subtracting 2x from both sides.

2x-2x+16=3x-2x

16=x

∴ x=16

Thus, the number is = 16

w = number of weeks

b(w) = number of books read after w weeks

====================================

b(w) = 12 translates to "after w weeks, Katy will have read 12 books" or put another way "Katy will have read 12 books after w weeks". The 'w' is a placeholder for some number

====================================

b(2) = 10 means "Katy has read 10 books after 2 weeks". We use the same basic idea talked about above, but we replace w with 2. At the same time, we use 10 instead of 12.

====================================

b(3) = f means "Katy has read f books after 3 weeks" or "after 3 weeks, Katy has read f books". Like w, the f is a placeholder for some number.

I have 5 blue pants and 6 pants with a zipper. If I have 9 pants that are either blue or have a zipper or both, how many pants a
sveta [45]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Blue pants: 5

Zipper pants: 6

total amount of pants (blue, zipper or both): 9

to find the pants that have both qualities, we need to find the difference between the total amount of pants and the sum of the blue and zipper pants:

sum of blue and zipper pants: 5 + 6 = 11

you can tell that there is a difference of

11 - 9 = 2 pants

this means that these 2 pants belong to both categories (blue and with a zipper). Thus there are 2 pants that are blue and have a zipper
