Assume that this number is n.
Difference between two number means the subtraction between them.
Therefore, "<span>The difference between a number and 12 is 20" means that when subtracting these two numbers, the result is 20.
Since the question did not mention which number is greater, therefore, we have two ways to write the equation.
These two ways are as follows:
x - 12 = 20, and
12 - x = 20

This doesn’t make any sense

That's of course the sum angle formula for sine
sin(a+b) = sin a cos b + cos a sin b
We have a=20° b=40°
sin 20° cos 40° + cos 20° sin 40°
= sin(20°+40°)
= sin(60°)
= √3/2
Answer: √3/2
Let x be the unknown number of years.
Let C be Chris' age and J be Jenny's age.
Then J+x = 2(C+x)-7
... describes this situation.
4+x = 2(2+x) - 7
4+x = 4 + 2x - 7
x = 2x -7 becomes 7=x
In 7 years, Jenny will be 7 years younger than twice Chris' age.
Check: Is this true? 4+7 = 2(2+7)-7
11 = 18-7, or 11=11 TRUE
