Answer:

\large \boxed{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

        Let x = your number

   Then 6x = your number multiplied by 6

and 6x + 7 = 7 added to that number

\begin{array}{rcrl}6x + 7 & = & 55 & \\6x & = & 48 & \text{Subtracted 7 from each side}\\x & = & \mathbf{8} & \text{Divided each side by 6}\\\end{array}\\\text{Your number is $\large \boxed{\mathbf{8}}$}

Check:

\begin{array}{rcl}6(8) + 7 & = & 55\\48 + 7 & = & 55\\55 & = & 55\\\end{array}

OK.

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

The coordinates of his position is (-6,-8).

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Let's assume for a moment that we are standing at the origin and the positive y-axis points due North while the positive x-axis points due East.

North represents the positive y axis, then south will represents the negative y axis.

It is given that the east represents the positive x axis then west represents the negative x axis.

Sasquatch-o-meter tells us that Sasquatch is 6 miles West and 8 miles South of our current position.

6 miles west represents a x=-6 and also 8 miles south represents y=-8

Thus, the coordinates of his position is (-6,-8).
