Let the number be x.

x - 2 = (x/2) + 6

Let us go ahead and solve the equation.

x - x/2 = 6 + 2

x/2 = 8

x = 2*8

x = 16

So the number is 16.

Hope this explains it.

Solve the system of equations 4x+5y=-1 and -5x-8y=10 by combining the equations.

Nimfa-mama [501]

The solution of the equation are as follows:

x = 6 and y = -5

<h3 />

<h3>How to solve the system of equation?</h3>

4x + 5y = -1

-5x - 8y = 10

Therefore,

20x + 25y = -5

-20x - 32y = 40

-7y = 35

y = -5

Hence,

4x + 5(-5) = -1

4x - 25 = -1

4x = -1 + 25

4x = 24

x = 24 / 4

x = 6
