Well, you can only combine the numbers with the variable (the x) in front of them, since there’s no other number on the left side of the equation to combine that lone number with

(example: 3x+2+5x; you can only add 3x and 5x together since 2 has no x).

So 3x and -2/9x would be your answer.

If 1 is added to a number and the sum is tripled​, the result is 17 more than the number. Find the number
bearhunter [10]
Form an equation. Start by representing the number you want to find as X. Now add 1.
X + 1
Now we need to triple it. That basically means multiply X+1 by 3. You can write that as:
3 (X + 1)
Now we write out that the result is 17 more than the number we want to find. So set an equals sign up
3 (X + 1) =
And now write X + 17
3 (X + 1) = X + 17

Now we solve for X.
Firstly, let's get rid of the X on the right.
Remember, if we want to get rid of a number of variable on one side, we need to use opposites, and do the same to the other side of the equation.
In this case, we have a positive X on the right. To get rid of that, we subtract X from both sides. This will leave us with:
2x + 3 = 17
Now let's get rid of the +3 on the left. To do this, we subtract 3 from both sides of the equation.
2x = 17 - 3
2x = 14
Now we just need to get X by itself. The 2 in front of the X multiplies X by 2. Therefore, to get X on its own, we need to divide 2x by 2, which just gives us 2.
We also need to divide the other side by 2, because if we do something on one side, we need to do something on the other too. So divide 14 by 2, and we get 7.
X = 7

But before we celebrate, let's double check the answer. Add 1 to 7. This gives us 8. Triple 8. This is 24. This should be 17 more than 7. So go, 24 - 17. And whaddya know - it's 7!

Step-by-step explanation:

convert 8.5% to a decimal by dividing by 100:

8.5÷100= 0.085

then multiply.

587.98×(0.085)=49.97

now add.

587.98+49.97=<u>637.95</u>
