Hey there!
Let's write an equation given this information. We will use x to represent the number.
2(x-7)=5
Now, we use the distributive property to remove the parentheses.
2x-14=5
Now, we add 14 to both sides.
2x=19
We divide both sides by 2.
x=9.5
Therefore, our number is 9.5
I hope this helps!
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
let me know if you need explanation
Supposing that the integers are x, y and z, and that their average is 8, then
x+y+z
-------- = 8, or x + y + z = 24.
3
Let's experiment. Making up a table, we get:
x y z sum (sum MUST be 24)
5 9 10 24
4 9 11 24
3 10 11 24
2 11 11 24
1 11 12 24
1 10 13 24
1 1 22 24
Can't choose integers smaller than 1, so it appears that 22 is the largest possible integer that could be one of x, y and z.

Answer:
3+6×(5+4÷2)-7
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the expression use order of operations.
Right now the expression solves to:
3+6×5+4÷2-7 6* 5 = 30
3 + 30 + 4÷2-7 4 ÷ 2 = 2
3 + 30 + 2 - 7 Add and subtract left to right.
33 + 2 - 7
35 - 7
28
To make it solve to 38, add parenthesis:
3+6×(5+4÷2)-7 (5+4÷2) = 7
3+6×(7)-7 6*7 = 42
3 + 42 - 7 Add and subtract from left to right
45 - 7
38
