Answer:
40
Step-by-step explanation:
Let n represent the integer. Then the increase can be written as ...
n + (-12) = 28
We can add 12 to both sides of this equation:
n + (-12) + (+12) = 28 +12
n + 0 = 40 . . . . . . -12 and 12 total to zero; 28 and 12 total to 40.
n = 40
The integer is 40.
Write an expression using multiplication and addition with a sum of 16:
2 x 6 +4
The first step of solving this problem is to find your x, which is the unknown number. The unknown number is the age of Max. Once you find the x you can write out your equation.
The equation for this problem is:
2x+8=26
the first step is to subtract 8 from both sides so that all you have on the left side is 2x and your equation will look like ths:
2x=18
after subtracting the 8; divide everything by the coefficient of x which is 2, your result is:
x=9
Max is 9 years old.
