Answer: 62

Step-by-step explanation: Set up your equation

  1. 21+x=2x-41 because the number (x) that 21 is added to is 41 <em>less than</em> (so subtraction) <em>twice </em>(so multiply the number x by 2) the number (x).
  2. Get the x's on one side by subtracting the single x
  3. 21=x-41
  4. Now add 41 to both sides to completely isolate x
  5. 62=x
  6. So, your answer is x=62. The number is 62.

Check your work. 62+21=83. 2(62)= 124. 124-41=83. Both equations equal 83, so the solution is correct.

dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

The answer will be listed below.

Step-by-step explanation:

No Solution: -2z+2+4z=16/5+2z-6/5; 5r+2=6r+3-r

One Solution: 3/2x+2.3-1/2x=4.3+x; 2x+2/3=2x+4/5-4x; 32p-2.5+2.1p=5p-7/2

Infinite Solution: 17/4+4.2y-9/4=2.2y+6+2y-4

Note: Remember that infinite solution is like 1=1 or 5x+2=5x+2. No solution is where it's like 0=1. 1 solution is where it's like x=2.
