Five more than twice a number is -13 find the number
The equation can be expressed as: ( 9 - 3x = 5(y + 5) ), where ( x ) is the unknown number being decreased and ( y ) is the unknown number being summed with five. This states that nine decreased by three times ( x ) is equal to five times the sum of ( y ) and five.
As written, the question has no solution.It was supposed to read " ... negative number squared...", but was corruptedduring the complex typing operation. Had it been correctly typed, the answerwould have been -9 .
negative numbers
to triple a number that was decreased by five you subtract 5 and then multiply by three. for example if you where given 10 you would 12-5=7 -> 7*3=21
Well, isn't that a happy little question! When you have two negative numbers like negative five minus negative five, it's like taking away a debt twice. So, negative five minus negative five equals zero, a beautiful blank canvas ready for new possibilities to emerge. Just remember, every mistake is just a happy little accident waiting to be turned into something wonderful.
