Answer: 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

If I increase twice my number by 5, the result is the same as if I triple my number and subtract 1. This can be formed into an equation as:

(2 × x) + 5 = (3 × x) - 1

2x + 5 = 3x - 1

5 + 1 = 3x - 2x

x = 6

The number you are thinking of is 6

Two binders costs$4.36. how many bindees can buy with $55?​
Reil [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to find the price for one binder. If 2 binders cost 4.36 you have to divide by 2 to find the price for 1. You should get 2.18. Then you have to see how many times you can multiply 2.18 without having the product go over 2.18. 2.18 • 22 = 47.96, the number closest to 50 without going over. Therefore, she can buy 22 binders.
