Question:

Twice the difference of a number and 5 is equal to 9 .

Answer:

2x - 5 = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Required

Translate

Let the number be x

Twice the number, x is 2x

The difference between (above) and 5 is 2x - 5

This equals to 9.

So, the expression becomes

2x - 5 = 9

Solving further:

2x = 5 + 9

2x = 14

Divide through by 2

x = 7

<em>Hence, the number is 7</em>

1)Evaluate 2A - 3B for A = 7 and B = -2.
Gnom [1K]
Hey Brion,

1) <span>Evaluate 2A - 3B for A = 7 and B = -2.
To solve this start by filling in the variables.
2(7) - 3(-2)

Now multiply, remember that a positive times a negative is a negative.
14 - (-6)

Finally, subtract. Remember, Keep, Change, Change (KCC). Keep the first number, change symbol (for subtraction use addition), and change the negative number to a positive number.
14 + 6 = 20

</span><span>2) If x = -3, then x 2-7x + 10 equals
Start by filling in the variables.
-3(2) - 7(-3) + 10

Now follow PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication & Division, Addition & Subtraction) to solve. Remember K.C.C (no.  1 above)
</span>-3(2) - 7(-3) + 10
<span>(-6) - (-21) + 10
(-6) + (21) + 10
15 + 10
25*****See NOTE!***
</span><span>_____________________________________________________________
Note: For #2 you may be missing a symbol between the first "x" and "2" because the answer I got above (25) is not one of your choices. Let me know what symbol is missing in the equation: </span><span>x 2-7x + 10, and I will help you solve it.</span>
