Whatever the variable was.
Thrice the same number.
2 times a number minus 17 plus 20 times a number minus 9 is the same as 2x - 17 + 20x - 9 = 22x - 26
The number is -13.
The sum of four times a number and twice the same number can be represented mathematically as (4x + 2x), where (x) is the number. Combining the terms, this simplifies to (6x). Therefore, the result is six times the number.
Let's call the number XTwice the number would be 2XFour times the same number would be 4XThe sum of these two is 2X + 4X = 6XThe answer is therefore six times the number.
Thrice the same number.
2 times a number minus 17 plus 20 times a number minus 9 is the same as 2x - 17 + 20x - 9 = 22x - 26
The number is -13.
The answer is 42
18
plus times plus = plus minus times plus = minus plus times minus = minus minus times minus = plus so when you subtract a number it is the same as adding its negative; for example 7 - 4 = 3 7 + (1)(-4) = 3
-424Four times the unknown number
Let's call the number XTwice the number would be 2XFour times the same number would be 4XThe sum of these two is 2X + 4X = 6XThe answer is therefore six times the number.
Let's name the first number "X" and the other number "Y" thus: 2X+5Y is the same thing as twice a number more than five times another
The same as a positive one. If you are multiplying a positive number by a negative, the answer will be negative. If you are multiplying a negative number by a negative, the answer will be positive.
It is 0.722... recurring.
the quotient of twice a number and six is.... 2x/6 four less than three times the same number is .... 3x-4 So the equation would be 2x/6=3x-4
