Our missing number we are solving for is X.
We are told x will equal 2x (number doubled) plus -16.
x = 2x + -16 We want to move the smaller variable to the right to sit with the larger one and move the -16 to the left by subtracting it from both sides. Remember that subtracting a negative is the same as adding it. So essentially we add 16 to both sides.
16 = 2x - x Combine the variables
16 = x or x = 16
I chose to put the variable on the left in this problem to avoid having a -x on the left side. It doesn't matter which side the variable is on to solve, but when you state it - we usually say x = 16.

Step-by-step explanation:
Assume a pentagon has equal length where a be the side of the pentagon and r be the apothem of the pentagon.
Given:
Sides of pentagon 
apothem of pentagon 
The area of the pentagon formula is given below.

Where b = length of the base or side
And h = height of apothem
Now, we substitute side and apothem length in above formula.


Therefore, the area of the pentagon is
