Answer(s):

If you are asking for the equation, it's 9(x+4)=2

However, if you're asking for the value of x as well, it's -34/9

Step by Step:

1) First we must find the equation. In your question, the unknown number is x. Therefore we can know that "the sum of a number and 4" is (x+4). Since we are multiplying this sum by 9, we can put the 9 in front of this expression to multiply it--getting 9(x+4). And since we know it "is 2" we can say that 9(x+4)=2.

2) Now, we have to solve the equation, 9(x+4) = 2

3) We can start by distributing, 9x+36 = 2

4) Now let's move 36 to the right by subtracting from both sides, 9x = -34

5) To isolate x, let's divide both sides by 9, x = -34/9

6) Our fraction answer can't be simplified, so we get x = -34/9

What is 36.993 to the nearest thousandth
finlep [7]

The next larger thousandth is 36.994 .
The next smaller thousandth is  36.992 .
Neither of those is any nearer to  36.993
than  36.993  already is.

The last '3' at the end of 36.993 is in the thousandths' place.
There is no more piece of another thousandth after it.
So  36.993 is already on a complete thousandth, and
there's no rounding required.

Solve for W -5.1=1.3+w/4
Lera25 [3.4K]
-5.1=1.3+w/4
Subtract 1.3 from both sides
-6.4=w/4
Multiply both sides by 4
-25.6=w

Check work:
-5.1=1.3+(-25.6/4)
-5.1=1.3+(-6.4)
-5.1=1.3-6.4
-5.1=-5.1

Hope this helps!  :)
