Two-thirds of a number added to itself is 20. What is the number?
vivado [14]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 x + x = 20

2/3 x + 3/3x = 20

5/3 x = 20   ... times 3/5 both sides

x = 12

check: 2/3 x 12 + 12 = 8 + 12 = 20

Which statement is true?
Veronika [31]

Answer:

B. Only 140 is an outlier

Step-by-step explanation:

To properly identify an outlier, you must first know what it is. An outlier is a number that is either a lot higher or a lot lower than the average in a set of numbers. For example, if you had a number set of 1, 3, 4, 6, and 72, you can deduce that 72 is the outlier because it's very far away compared to the other numbers in the set.

In the set that's provided, the numbers tend to range in the double digits, going up in small increments from 15 to 89. However, we can see that 140 is a lot higher than the rest of the numbers in the set, so we can assume that 140 is an outlier.
