The question is: What is x if 1 is less than 2x?
Solution method:
1. Reduce the equation to a value for x. i.e. divide everything by 2
So 0.5 is less than 1x (0.5 < x),
2. Reverse the equation and change the signs
Answer: x is greater 0.5 (x > 0.5)
i.e. If x is greater than 0.5, then 1 is less than twice x.
One less than twice a number = (X times 2) minus 1, (where X = your number of choice).
This forms an equation which solves nicely: 2x-7 = x-1 x-7 = -1 x = 6
2x-6
If 'x' is more than 1, then x2 is more than 'x'. If 'x' is less than 1, then x2 is less than 'x'.
2x-6
One less than twice a number = (X times 2) minus 1, (where X = your number of choice).
This forms an equation which solves nicely: 2x-7 = x-1 x-7 = -1 x = 6
The expression that represents 5 less than twice x is ( 2x - 5 ). Here, "twice x" is represented by ( 2x ), and subtracting 5 from it gives us the final expression.
Factors of 28 include 7 x 4. 7 is 1 less than twice 4...
2x-6
The expression for "five less than twice x" can be written as (2x - 5). Here, (2x) represents twice the value of (x), and subtracting 5 indicates that we are taking five away from that amount.
If 'x' is more than 1, then x2 is more than 'x'. If 'x' is less than 1, then x2 is less than 'x'.
you r asking a number whose twice will be 4 but less than 8. so, take a no. x. by ques. 2x=4; 2x=4; x=4/2; hence x=2; 2 is answer and less than 8 of twice it.
2x-6
2x-3
2x + 4 < x x < -4
Let the number be x Twice a number means 2x 7 less than twice a number means 2x-7
