Eight less than a number is six more than twice the same number.
I need the number.
1 answer:
The answer is -14
Explanation:
x - 8 = 2x + 6
We move all term to the left
x - 8 - ( 2x + 6 ) = 0
We get rid of parentheses
x - 2x - 6 - 8 = 0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
-1x - 14 = 0
We move all terms containing x to the left, all other term to the right
-x = 14
x = 14/-1
x = -14

Answer:
23
Step-by-step explanation:
Basically I did it backwards & opposites:
-28 divided by -7 = 4
4 + 19 = 23
I checked btw and it worked.
2x+2=-52
2x=-54
x=-27
That is the simple formula for it.
