Answer:

The number is 14.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that x is the number that we are looking for, then it is first doubled "2x", if it's taken away from 10 we have "10 - 2x" and this is equal to -18. Therefore we have the expression:

10 - 2x = -18

-2x = -18 -10

-2x = -28

x = -28/-2

x = 14

The number is 14.

This is One-half squared. That means you must multiply it by itself twice. This would result in 1/4 or one-fourth.
