It would be 9 because 2x9=18. Then 18+-2=16.

N is the number
2(n-2)=16
divide both sides by 2
n-2=8
add 2 to both sides
n=10

the number is 10

How many solutions can be found for the equation 5x + 3(x − 1) = 10x − x − 5? (4 points)

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

The correct option is b.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of solutions, we need to solve the equation:

$5x + 3(x - 1) = 10x - x - 5$

Let's group all the "x" on the equation.

$5x + 3x - 10x + x = 3 - 5$

Now, let's solve for "x".

$-x = -2$

$x = 2$

Therefore, the equation has one solution. The correct option is b.

I hope it helps you!
