Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
When x represents the number, "the sum of 3 and a number" is (x+3). Twice that sum is 2(x+3). "Is 30" means this expression is equal to 30:
2(x +3) = 30 . . . . an equation for the given conditions
__
We can solve this equation by dividing by 2:
x + 3 = 15
x = 12 . . . . . . subtract 3
The number is 12.
Lets say the number is x so we can make an equation
If is at least 21, that means it has to be greater then or equal to it.
6+5*x>=21
You can subtract 6 from both sides
5*x>=15
Then divide both sides by 5
x>=3
You can conclude that the number is greater then or equal to 3.
