<span>This is the equation made from the problem where x=mystery number
</span><span>2x+3(x+1)=4(x-1)</span><span>
</span><span>Now let's solve for x!
</span><span>
</span><span>We start by distributing 3 into (X+1)
</span><span>
</span><span>3(x)=3x and 3(1)=3
</span><span>
</span><span>Now our equation is 2x+3x+3=4(x-1)
</span><span>
</span><span>Let's combine both x values on the left side of the equation: 2x + 3x=5x
</span><span>
</span><span>We now have 5x+3=4(x-1)
</span><span>
</span><span>Let's distribute 4 into (x-1)
</span><span>
</span><span>4(x)=4x and 4(-1)=-4
</span><span>
</span><span>Now our equation is 5x+3=4x-4
</span><span>
</span><span>subtract 3 form both sides
</span><span>
</span><span>5x=4x-7
</span><span>
</span><span>subtract 4x from both sides
</span><span>
</span><span>x=-7
</span><span>
</span><span>Yay! So the number she is thinking of is -7!</span><span>

Divide sales tax amount over the item's cost
23.1 / 330 = 0.07
Therefore the sales tax is 7%
Answer:
n=-7
Step-by-step explanation:
For this you can do the inverse of division which is division. So Divide -91 and 13. Which is -7.
The sum of all angles in a regular octagon is 1080 degrees. Because all sides are the same (regular octagon), all of the eight angles are the same too, so we simply divide 1080 by 8 and that is the solution.
1080/8 = 135
The answer would be 26 because .1-4 rounds down, 5-9 rounds up
