consider first number is = x
formula,
(n / 2)(first number + last number) = sum,
7/2(x+x+6)= 945
2x+6= 945×2/7
2x+6 = 270
2x= 270-6
x=264/2= 132
Answer the smallest number is 132.
Answer: -6 is the answer
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
you can
Step-by-step explanation:
they are not like terms because the number 6 has and x next to it and 17 doesn't
Answer:
2nd option
Step-by-step explanation:
You're goal is to isolate b by itself. The only part you need to worry about is the equation, the rest of the word problem is irrelevant.
The whole process of solving this is to do PEMDAS in reverse.
So first add/subtract all the values that does not have a <em>b</em> attach to it to the other side.
then multiply/divide all the values that is not a <em>b</em> to get the b-value by itself
Answer:
Your number is -10
Hope this helps :)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number
Twice a number is 2x
Added to 7 means + 7 so 2x + 7
Is means =
2x+7=
At this point I have to assume you mean
"is the same as three subtracted from THE SAME number"
Otherwise, rather than a number, we end up with the
equation of a line....
2x + 7 = x - 3 subtract x from both sides
x + 7 = -3 subtract 7 from both sides
x = -10
Your number is -10
Check: 2x+7 = x-3
2(-10) + 7 = -10-3
-20+7 = -13
-13 = -13
The answer fits the parameters of the problem.
