That would be -4 .
Let the number be represented by ( x ). According to the problem, if the sum of the number and five is tripled, it can be expressed as ( 3(x + 5) ). This is equal to eight less than twice the number, or ( 2x - 8 ). Setting up the equation, we have ( 3(x + 5) = 2x - 8 ). Solving this gives ( x = -1 ).

It's five and a halve
No matter the conditions, you will not be able to find a number that is simultaneously more than 20 and less than 5.

It depends on ur # let's just say it was 1 then u do this :1 times 3=3+5=8 if original #=1 answer I s 8
two more than the total of a number and five = (x + 5) +2Let x = a numbertotal of a number and five = x + 5two more than = +2thus,two more than the total of a number and five = (x + 5) +2
ten more than five times a number
Five more than twice a number is -13 find the number

Five (5) more than (+) three times a number (3x) is (=) five times the number (5x) less (-) three (3) 5 + 3x = 5x - 3 x = 4
Five times more than ninety means multiplying 90 by 5, which equals 450. So, the number that is five times more than ninety is 450.
