In order to solve this problem, we must solve an equation.
First, we need to define our unknown.
Let's call our number "n".
So, the sum of the number and 6 is the same as saying n+6
Then we need to multiply it by 2 (since it's twice the sum)
2(n+6)
This whole thing is equal to three times of the difference of the number and 8
n-8 is equal to the difference between the number and 8, then we need to multiply it by three.
3(n-8)
now, we set both sides equal and solve

The number is 36
Answer:
x = 2, x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation y = 10 - 9x is a linear equation and the value of either y or x can be found by substituting the given values of either y or x.
given that y = -8, and substituting this into equation y = 10 - 9x,
we have, -8 = 10 - 9x
10 + 8 = 9x
9x = 18; dividing both sides by 9
x = 2
given that y = -26, and substituting this into equation y = 10 - 9x,
we have, -26 = 10 - 9x
10 + 26 = 9x
9x = 36; dividing both sides by 9
x = 4
300 boxes
0.8 cup per box
300 * 0.8 cups = 240 cups
There are 16 cups in a gallon.
240/16 gal = 15 gal
Answer: 15
579/3 fist you divid 5 by 3 than you subtract them and get two than you bring down your seven and have 27 divided by 3 and that is 9. than you bring down your last number and than you come up with an answer of 193.
