Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

"a number" = x

-- <u>"Two more</u> than <u>16 times</u> <u>a number</u>." | 16 times a number means "16x" | Two more than just means add 2.

(16x + 2)

-- "Is the same as" means equals.

(16x + 2) =

-- <u>21 less than</u> <u>the product of -7</u> and <u>the number</u> | The product of -7 and the number means "-7x" | 21 less than means subtract 21.

(16x + 2) = (-7x - 21)

-- solve for x.

(16x + 7x) = (-21 - 2)

-- combine like terms.

23x = -23

-- Divide.

x = -1

Hi there :)


Answer: 33% of 400 is 132.

then I divide 13,200 by 100 and then you will get your answer of 132.
