In order to solve this problem, we must solve an equation.
First, we need to define our unknown.
Let's call our number "n".
So, the sum of the number and 6 is the same as saying n+6
Then we need to multiply it by 2 (since it's twice the sum)
2(n+6)
This whole thing is equal to three times of the difference of the number and 8
n-8 is equal to the difference between the number and 8, then we need to multiply it by three.
3(n-8)
now, we set both sides equal and solve

The number is 36
Answer:
The answer is 21
Step-by-step explanation:
21x4+2=86
We know that 70% of all comic book fans are male, and that 40% of Company A fans are male.
Since 25% of all comic book fans are company A fans:
0.4 * 0.25 (meaning 40% of 25%) = 0.1, or 10% of all comic book fans are male company A fans.
What percentage, then, of male comic book fans are company A fans?
0.1 ÷ 0.7 = 0.142
We divide 10%, the percentage of all comic book fans that are male and company A fans, by the percentage of comic book fans that are male, since we are given that the fan is male.
Answer is 0.14
Answer:
7 hamsters at 5 pesos each and 13 hamsters at 8 pesos each
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 8y = 139
x + y = 20
x = 20 - y
5x + 8y = 139
5(20 - y) + 8y = 139
100 - 5y + 8y = 139
100 + 3y = 139
3y = 139 - 100
3y = 39
3y/3 = 39/3
y = 13
x + y = 20
x + 13 = 20
x = 20 - 13
x = 7
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
FH is the combined lengths of FG and GH.
In an equation, this is:

We already know that FG is 8 and that GH is 14. Thus:

Add:

So, the length of FH is 22.
And we're done!
