<h3>20 subtracted from three times a number is 6 more than the number. Then the number is 13</h3>
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
<em><u>Given statement is:</u></em>
20 subtracted from three times a number is 6 more than the number
We can translate the sentence into algebraic expression
Let "a" be the unknown number
Then,
20 subtracted from three times "a" is 6 more than "a"
Which means,
3a - 20 = 6 + a
3a - a = 6 + 20
2a = 26
Divide both sides by 2
a = 13
Thus the number is 13

Answer:
x = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
Both angles are supplementary and will add up to 180°
5x - 5 + 2x + 10 = 180
collect like terms
5x + 2x +10 -5 = 180
7x + 5 = 180
7x = 180 - 5
7x = 175
x = 175/7
x=25
