"the difference of a number x and 4": x - 4
"is": =
"3": 3
Combine the terms so that it looks like the sentence numerically:
"the difference of a number x and 4 is 3": x - 3 = 4
x - 3 = 4 is your answer.
To solve for x:
Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Isolate the variable, x. Add 3 to both sides.
x - 3 = 4
x -3 (-3) = 4 (-3)
x = 4 - 3
x = 1
1 is your answer for x.

Y=12/x
12/2=6
12/4=3
12/8=1.5 or 3/2
12/12=1
Answer is b
11 because if you count the spaces between the two places, the answer would be 11.
Answer:
23rd term of the arithmetic sequence is 118.
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question we have been given first term a1 = 8 and 9th term a9 = 48
we have to find the 23rd term of this arithmetic sequence.
Since in an arithmetic sequence

here a = first term
n = number of term
d = common difference
since 9th term a9 = 48
48 = 8 + (9-1)d
8d = 48 - 8 = 40
d = 40/8 = 5
Now 
= 8 + (23 -1)5 = 8 + 22×5 = 8 + 110 = 118
Therefore 23rd term of the sequence is 118.
The answer is y = +8
Explanation:
Since they tell us what x equals (3), let's plug that into the equation
y = (3) + 5
Now, we can just add 3 and 5 together, which we get 8
y = +8
