Answer:
The number is -1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number
2x+8 = 7
Subtract 8 from each side
2x+8-8 = 7-8
2x = -1
Divide each side by 2
2x/2 =-1/2
x = -1/2
2x + 8 = 7
"a number" can be signified by a variable.
So 2 times a number would give you 2x
And 8 would mean to add 8.
Is 7 means the end result is 7.
So 2x + 8 = 7
the product of 7and m is 7m
if m=4
then the product is 7*4
=28
1) f=30
2) w=21
3) x=72
4) t=12
5) y=6
