Greetings!

"The sum of twice a number and 13 is 75."...

Let's translate this into an equation:
 $2x+13=75$
Solve for x:
Add -13 to both sides.
 $(2x+13)+(-13)=(75)+(-13)$
Simplify.
$2x=62$
Divide both sides by 2.
$(2x)/2=(62)/2$
Simplify.
$x=31$

The variable is equal to 31.

Hope this helps.

Answer: Your answer is X=6

Step-by-step explanation:

10/3 = 20/x

Determine the defined range

10/3 20/x, x=0

Cross-multiply

10x = 60

Divide both sides by 10

x=6,x=0

Check if the solution is in the defined range

SOLUTION x=6

Use 3.14 for the value of , and round your answers to two decimal places, where applicable. If the diameter of a circle is 15 m,

if the diameter of a circle is 15, its radius is half that or 7.5.

$\bf \textit{area of a circle}\\\\ A=\pi r^2~~ \begin{cases} r=radius\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ r=7.5 \end{cases} A=\pi (7.5)^2\implies A=56.25\pi \implies \stackrel{\pi =3.14}{A=176.625}$
