Question

a number multiplied by 4, add -4 to the product and then take 1/3 of the sum, the result is -6. find the number

Answer 1

Answer:

-7/2

Step-by-step explanation:

lets do math:

this looks pretty hard right,

so lets say our number is called x

this is our equation:

-6=(4x-4)1/3

divide -6 by 1/3 because why not

=-18

-18=4x-4

add 4 to both sides because im smart

-14=4x

divide both side by 4 because im smart again

x=-7/2

lemme check this because i make mistakes a lot.

im right
