Let’s say Peter’s number is P.

P minus 16 and the answer times -2 is -34

-2(P-16) = -34

-2P+32 = -34

-2P = -66

Divide by -2

P is 33.

Check: 33-16 is 17 and 17*-2 is -34. So

P is 33.

Answer:

33

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x,

=> (x - 16) -2 = - 34

=> -2x + 32 = -34

=> -2x = - 34 - 32 (by transposing)

=> -2x = -66

=> x = -66/-2 = 33

Peter's number is 33.

Hope you understood.

Marina86 [1]

Answer:

You can also use a dot plot to identify the shape of a distribution. All the dots are about the same height. A uniform distribution is also symmetric. The data on the right of the distribution are approximately a mirror image of the data on the left of the distribution.

2x18-5+15%5=32<br><br> Insert parentheses to make each equal true
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

( 2×8) - [ ( 5 + 15 ) ÷ 5] = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows,

Given equation = 2x18-5+15/5=32

First we multiply first two letters,

then ( 2 × 18) = 36

Now, we add 5 and 15 then divide it by 5,

So, ( 5 + 15 ) ÷ 5 = 20 ÷ 5 = 4

Now we subtract 4 from 36,

Then 36 - 4 = 32

Hence the correct parentheses = ( 2×8) - [ ( 5 + 15 ) ÷ 5] = 32
