Our missing number we are solving for is X.
We are told x will equal 2x (number doubled) plus -16.
x = 2x + -16 We want to move the smaller variable to the right to sit with the larger one and move the -16 to the left by subtracting it from both sides. Remember that subtracting a negative is the same as adding it. So essentially we add 16 to both sides.
16 = 2x - x Combine the variables
16 = x or x = 16
I chose to put the variable on the left in this problem to avoid having a -x on the left side. It doesn't matter which side the variable is on to solve, but when you state it - we usually say x = 16.
Answer:
56 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
They are supplementary, so they add to 180. 180 - 124 = 56.
Answer:
bi ch u dom
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Ca^(2+) or the charge is 2 plus or just 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Charge on the calcium ion = 20*(+1) + 18*(-1) = 20 - 18 = 2
The charge on the calcium ion is +2
