the wording is a little confusing so it could be either of these answers.

3x + 10 = 20

    -10.     -10

3x = 10

x = 10/3

3(x +10) = 20

3x + 30 = 20

   -30.     -30

3x = -10

x = -10/3

Answer:

The number is 10/3

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Convert words into an expression</u>

Three times a number increased by ten is equal to twenty

(3n) + 10 = 20

<u>Step 2:  Subtract 10 from both sides</u>

3n + 10 - 10 = 20 - 10

3n = 10

<u>Step 3:  Divide both sides by 3</u>

3n / 3 = 10 / 3

n = 10/3

Answer:  The number is 10/3

leonid [27]

Length (L): w + 3.5

width (w): w

Perimeter (P) = 2L + 2w

                31 = 2(w + 3.5) + 2(w)

                31 = 2w + 7 + 2w

                31 = 4w + 7

               24 = 4w

                 6 = w

Length (L): w + 3.5   = (6) + 3.5   = 9.5

Answer: width = 6 inches, length = 9.5 inches
