Answer 1

Answer:

Quintrell's number is 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $x$ be equal to Quintrell's number.

"When 35 is added to my number, the answer is 4 times my original number plus 8."

⇒

$35+x=4x+8$

Subtract both sides by $x$

$35+x-x=4x+8-x\\35=3x+8$

Subtract both sides by 8

$35-8=3x+8-8\\27=3x$

Divide both sides by 3

$\frac{27}{3} =\frac{3x}{3} \\9=x$

Therefore, Quintrell's number is 9.

I hope this helps!
