X = number 48 - X = 4X - 7
The real answer is n-7
3x + 7
3x - 7 ≤ 9 "Seven less than" means that you subtract seven from the answer. "Three times a number" means that you multiply it. "At most" means that this is the greatest number that it can be, which is, in this case, 9. To solve this, you apply the principle rules of algebra to determine x. 3x ≤ 9 + 7 3x ≤ 16 x ≤ 16/3
three times a number decreased by eleven
x > -26
The number is 26

6n - 3n which simplifies to 3n.
Thirty decreased by three times a number is six less than three times the number. Find the number.
let x=the number 87-3*(x)>165
How do you write half a number decreased by 8 is equal to the sum of the number and 14
When 3 times a number is decreased by 4 the result is 17. what is the number?
The question is not phrased appropriately enough to derive meaning from it. Taken literally, you wish the number 87 to have a number subtracted from it. And that number is to be three times a number that is greater than 165. 166 is greater. And three times that is 498. And 87 minus 498 is negative 411. However, there an infinite number of numbers that are greater than 165. That was the first.
Three times a number decreased by one.
