You multiply a number by 3 subtract 6 then add 2 the results is 20 what's the number
e-lub [12.9K]

You multiply a number by 3 subtract 6 then add 2 the results is 20

what's the number​ ?

Let the number = x

multiply a number by 3

so, it becomes 3x

subtract 6 , so, 3x - 6

then add 2

so, 3x - 6 + 2

The result will be 20

So,

3x - 6 + 2 = 20

solve for x

3x - 4 = 20

Add 4 to both sides

3x - 4 + 4 = 20 + 4

3x = 24

Divide both sides by 3

3x/3 = 24/3

So,

x = 8

Divide. (3 3/4)÷(−2 1/2) Enter your answer as a mixed number, in simplified form, in the box.
neonofarm [45]
3 \frac{3}{4} = \frac{15}{4}

Because (4*3) + 3 = 15. Similary find the improper fraction for -2 1/2.

(15/4) / (-5/2) = -3/2

Convert -3/2 into a mixed fraction. 

Therefore, -3/2 = -1 1/2.

Amy is eight years older than twice her cousin Alicia’s age. The sum of their ages is less than 32. Let x represent Alicia's age
Vladimir [108]
Assume that the age of Alicia is x and that of Amy is y
Twice the age of Alicia = 27
Eight years older means we will add 8
Therefore, the statement "<span>Amy is eight years older than twice her cousin Alicia’s age" can be represented as follows:
y = 8 + 2x (equation)
The sum of their ages is less than 32 can be represented as:
x + y < 32 which can also be written as y < 32-x (inequality)
