Let x = the number.
"increased by" tells you we are adding.
"twice a number" tells you 2 times a number.
16 + 2x = - 24
Subtract 16 from both sides so that we have the variable on one sides and the constants on the other.
2x = - 24 - 16
2x = - 40
Divide by 2 to isolate the variable.
x = - 40/2 = - 20
Your solution is - 20.
To check your answer, plug in.
16 + 2(-20) = - 24
16 - 40 = - 24
- 24 = - 24

Answer:
Inverse of -5-9x/x-6
Step-by-step explanation:
Steps:
1: Interchange the variables x and y.
x=6y-5/y+9
2: Solve x = 6y-5/y+9 for y
3: Multiply both sides by y+9
4: Simplify and Expand
5: Subtract 9x from both sides.
6: Simplify and Subtract y from both sides then Simplify again
7: Divide both sides by x-6
Answer: Inverse of -5-9x/x-6
