translate, call the number, n
Eight more than (8+) twice a number increased by 3 (2(n+3)) is equal to (=) 79 (79)
8+2(n+3)=79
minus 8 both sides
2(n+3)=71
divide both sides by 2
n+3=35.5
minus 3 both sides
n=32.5
the number is 32.5
Answer a=3f+g/b+x
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve for a.
a(x+b)=g+3f
Step 1: Factor out variable a.
a(b+x)=3f+g
Step 2: Divide both sides by b+x.
a(b+x)/b+x=3f+g/b+x
a=3f+g/b+x
I believe c should be the answer. I apologize if its wrong
Let’s start out by breaking down the equation
1. eight more than. we know this must mean we are adding 8, so (+ 8)
2. the difference of a number and sixteen. we know the number (x) and 16 are being subtracting as indicated by the word difference, so (x-16)
now let’s combine them (x-16) + 8
let’s set it equal to 0, just to confirm it is correct.
(x-16) +8 = 0
x-16 = -8
x = 8
so substituting x for 8 in the translation: (8-16) + 8 = 0
-8 +8=0
it is correct! :)
300 - 3x = 24
-24 -24
276 - 3x = 0
+3x +3x
276 = 3x
276/3 = 3x/3
92 = x
x = 92
