Let the unknown number be x.
<span>sum of a number and one: x + 1
</span>
<span>sum of a number and one is doubled: 2(x + 1)
</span>
<span>three less than the number: x - 3
2(x + 1) = x - 3
2x + 2 = x - 3
x + 2 = -3
x = -5
The number is -5.

Answer:
98
Step-by-step explanation:
Of means multiply and is means equals
20% *x = 28
Changing to decimal form
.20 * x = 28
Divide each side by .20
.20x/.20 = 28/.20
x =140
Now we want to find 70% of 140
70% * 140
Changing to decimal form
.70 * 140
=98
Answer:
50,000 fifty-thousand
Step-by-step explanation:
Just use a calculator
Answer:
Yes
Explanation:
5x + 2y = 17
We are given the values (1, 6)
Substitute then into the equation
(I put a question mark to basically ask the question “is 5(1) + 2(6) equal to 17?”)
5(1) + 2(6) = 17?
5 + 12 = 17?
Yes!
Hope this helped and made sense :)
