Let x = the number.
"increased by" tells you we are adding.
"twice a number" tells you 2 times a number.
16 + 2x = - 24
Subtract 16 from both sides so that we have the variable on one sides and the constants on the other.
2x = - 24 - 16
2x = - 40
Divide by 2 to isolate the variable.
x = - 40/2 = - 20
Your solution is - 20.
To check your answer, plug in.
16 + 2(-20) = - 24
16 - 40 = - 24
- 24 = - 24

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
We need to compute the exact number of days of the loan.
Given:
Loan: 1,870
rate: 11%
term: Oct. 5 to Jan 16.
Oct 5-Oct 31: 26 days
Nov: 30 days
Dec: 31 days
Jan 16: 16 days.
total number of days: 103 days.
Interest = Principal * rate * term
Interest = 1870 * 0.11 * 103/365
Interest = 58.05
Given:
Promissory note $5,380
rate 6.2%
term: July 15 to Dec. 28
July 15 - 31 = 16 days
August: 31 days
September: 30 days
October: 31 days:
November: 30 days
December: 28 days
Total number of days is 166 days
Interest = Principal * rate * term
Interest = 5,380 * 0.062 * 166/365
Interest = 151.70
The answer is 15.
17^2-8^2=225
sr of 225= 15
