Answer:

\mathrm{A}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let that number be x.

1/8x=2+1/4x

1/8x-1/4x=2

-1/8x=2

x=2 \times -8/1

x=-16

Answer:

A. -16.

Step-by-step explanation:

1/8 x = 1/4 x + 2  where x is the number to be found.

Subtract 1/4 x for both sides of the equation:

-1/8x = 2

x = 2*-8

x = -16

One number is five less than a second number. Five times the first is 15 more than 6 times the second. Find the numbers
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

x = -45, y = -40

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the first clue, we find out that

x + 5 = y

5x = 6y + 15

We can re-write the first equation to x = y - 5.

Therefore, the second equation can also be written as 5(y - 5) = 6y + 15

This can be simplified to 5y - 25 = 6y + 15

We can subtract 6y from each side, and add 25 to each side;

5y - 6y = 15 + 25

Therefore, -y = 40

Therefore y = -40.

Now let's plug this back into the original equation, to get : x  + 5 = -40

x=-45
