Two thirds of a number reduced by 11 is equal to 4 more than the number. Find the
number.
1 answer:
Assume that the number is x:
2/3 of x take off 11 = 4x
Transform into numerical / algebraic form:
2/3 * x - 11 = 4x
Next multiply both sides by 3 to get rid of the fraction:
2 * x - 33 = 12x
Simplify:
2x - 33 = 12x
Isolate 2x by adding 33 to both sides:
2x = 12x + 33
Isolate 33 by taking 12x off both sides:
-10x = 33
Divide both sides by -10 to get the value of x:
x = 33/-10 (or x = -3.3)
Therefore the number is -3.3

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
According to the question;
radius (r) = 7
We know,
Circumference (c) = 2πr
= 2π * 7
= 14π
Therefore the circumference of p is 14π.
Hope it helps!
Answer:
6x-12
Step-by-step explanation:
I think this is the answer I am so sorry if Im wrong but 3*2x = 6x and then -4*3 = -12
My guess would be distributive. i maybe be wrong so don't get mad if I'm wrong.
