Answer:

x=-1.625  Decimal form  

x= -13/8    Fraction form

Step-by-step explanation:

3(-2x-1)=2(x+5)

Use distributive property to solve-

-6x-3=2x+10

Now add like terms

-6x-3=2x+10

    +3       +3

   -6x=2x+13  (get the x by itself)

  -2x    -2x

-8x=13     Divide

x= -1.625   Decimal form

x=-13/8   Fraction form

Twice the difference of a number and 2 is at most -27
igor_vitrenko [27]
<h2>Explanation:</h2><h2 />

When we say "a is at most b" we mean that "a is less than or equal to b" or "a is not greater than b". So let's solve this problem as follows:

Step 1. Twice the difference of a number and 2

Let's call that unknown number as n. Then, twice the difference of a number and 2 is:

2(n-2)

Step 2. Twice the difference of a number and 2 is at most -27

2(n-2)\leq -27

_________________________________________

So the mathematical form of the statement <em>twice the difference of a number and 2 is at most -27 </em>is:

\boxed{2(n-2)\leq -27}
