Answer:

0.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let that number be n

Adds 8: n+8

Then doubles: 2(n+8)

2(n+8) = 16.4

n+8 = 8.2

n = 0.2 or ⅕

Answer:

The number is 0.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Write an equation for it:

Say that the number was called x

2(x +8) =16.4

Brain added 8 to the number (x) and then doubled it which is the 2

Times out the brackets 2x + 16 = 16.4

Take away 16 from both sides

2x = 0.4

0.4 / 2 = 0.2

Solve the equation 12x+6y= 24 for x.
velikii [3]

Answer: x = -1/2y + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

12x + 6y = 24  To solve for x  first start by subtracting 6y from both sides

      - 6y    -6y

12x =  24 - 6y    Now divide each side by 12

x= 2 - 1/2y

Complementary angles ⇒ the angles add up to 90°

∠A and ∠B are complementary ⇒ ∠A + ∠B = 90°

∠A + ∠B = 90°

Plug in the values for ∠A and ∠B:
(3x - 8) + (5x + 10)  = 90

Open the brackets:
3x - 8 + 5x + 10 = 90

Combine like terms:
8x + 2 = 90

Subtract 2 from both sides:
8x = 88

Divide both sides by 8:
x = 11

Answer: x = 11
