X-the number
16 + 2x = -24 |subtract 16 from both sides
2x = -40 |divide both sides by 2
<u>x = -20</u>
Answer: <em>The number is -24</em>
319049
as 100,042 + 98,117 + 120,890 = 319,049
For this, let's have:
n represent each number, the number after it is its place in sequence
/ means divide
n1 /2 = n2, etc.
Set up and solve an equation:
3(90-x) = (180-x). Then 270 - 3x = 180 - x, or 270 - 180 = 2x.
90 = 2x, so x = 45 deg.
Is this true? 3(90-45) = (180-45)? If so, x = 45 degrees is correct.
