Answer: 11
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up an equation
Based on the question, we can determine that 4x = 22 + 2x where x in is the number
"Four times a number" -> <u>4x</u>
"was" -> <u>=</u>
"22 greater than" -> <u>22 +</u>
"twice the same number" -> <u>2x</u>
Put the underlined parts together to get <u>4x = 22 + 2x</u>
Solve equation
Rearrange/collect like terms to solve for x by subtracting 2x from both sides
4x = 22 + 2x
2x = 22
Solve for x by dividing each side by 2
2x = 22
x = 11
Final Answer
x = 11
28.50x + 110.99(14-x)=811.45
distribute
28.50 x + 1553.86-110.99x =811.45
combine like terms
-82.49x+1553.86=811.45
subtract 1553.86 from each side
-82.49x =-742.41
divide by -82.49
x=9
He bought 9 of the 28.50 features and 5 of the 110.99 features
Answer:
40
Step-by-step explanation:
52= 1/2(64 + x)
52 = 32 + 0.5x
52-32= 32-32 + .5x
20=.5x
Divide both sides by .5x
X = 40.
