Answer: x - 2 + 5 = x - 12
Step-by-step explanation:
At first I was confused. Then I read the question again and translated it.
Less than translated means - 2.
A number, aka X.
and means plus(+).
when you put that together you get,
x - 2 + 5.
The next step is to translate to second part of the equation.
Is means equals(=).
So far we have: X - 2 + 5 = 12.
<em>This is where I got confused...</em>
After solving that peice, we have the words; " 12 less than the number it's self. I wasn't sure if 2 x's could be in the same equation. Now I know they can.
Above, we established that 'a number' is x.
Now, it's talking about that number again because it says; "The number itself." At first, I thought it was talking about 12 - 12! Then I realized that it's not.
The new equation, after understanding that in the second piece isn't 12 - 12, would be none other than,
x - 2 + 5 = 12 - x
I hope this helps!!
Answer:
A- true
B- false
C- false
1/6. -5/6 + 1/6 = -4/6
-0.08. ( im pretty sure that is the answer. again, i cant really show work, just do 3.5 - (1.9+2.4)
a. b is positive. i dont really understand counterexamples, I'm really sorry!!
Hope this helps!
( you can't add extra points.. If you really want to, can you plz thank me??)

Answer: 9, 11 (or for the picture 48 and 52)
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of two numbers (x, y) is 20;
x+y=20
One is 2 greater than than the other;
y=x+2
Now, we can put that in for y;
x+(x+2)=20
And solve;
2x+2=20
2x=18
x=9
Now, substitute in the value of x into the second equation;
y=9+2
And we get our answer.
y=11
My explanations are bad :(
