9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • 2(x +3) = 30
  • 12

Step-by-step explanation:

When x represents the number, "the sum of 3 and a number" is (x+3). Twice that sum is 2(x+3). "Is 30" means this expression is equal to 30:

  2(x +3) = 30 . . . . an equation for the given conditions

__

We can solve this equation by dividing by 2:

  x + 3 = 15

  x = 12 . . . . . . subtract 3

The number is 12.
