Six more than: 6 + or + 6
twice a number: let n represent the unknown number: 2n

6 + 2n = 16

So, the answer is either c or d

So, solve the equation

Subtract 6 on both sides of the equation

2n=10

Divide by 2 on both sides of the equation

n=5

So, the answer is C

The answer is:  [C]:
_____________________________________________________
<span>"6 + 2n = 16 ;
 n = 5 " .
______________________
Note:  6 + 2n = 16 ; 
______________________________________________________
 </span>→ <span>Subtract "6" from each side of the equation:
______________________________________________________
</span>  →  6n + 2n − 6 = 16<span> − 6 ;
______________________________________________________
  to get:
______________________________________________________
</span>  → 2n = 10 ;
______________________________________________________
   → Now, divide EACH side of the equation by "2" ; to isolate "n" on EACH side of the equation; and to solve for "n" ;
______________________________________________________ 
              →  2n / 2 = 10 / 2 ;
<span>______________________________________________________
to get:  </span>  →  n = 5 .

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say B is the number of boys and T is the number of teachers.

T / (B + 18) = 2/21

B/18 = 4/3

Solve the second equation for B.

B = 24

Plug into the first equation to find T.

T / (24 + 18) = 2/21

T = 4
