Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
add 
to both sides
Divide both sides by 
Answer:
8>x (greater sign needs a line under it)
4<x
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The number is -2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number = x
Given that:
Five times the result of adding one to a certain number, is equal to four times the number, plus three.
The equation will be:
5(x+1) = 4x +3
Simplifying
5x + 5 = 4x +3
Taking terms with x on left side and others on right side
5x - 4x = 3 - 5 (sign of transferred terms will be changed)
x = -2
Proof :
Condition 1:
- Add one = -2 +1 = -1
- Multiply 5 = -5
Condition 2:
- 4 times of number = 4 (-2) = -8
- Add 3 = -8 +3 = -5
Hence both conditions have same answer.
I hope it will help you!
