The number is 7.

2x + 7 = 33 2x = 33 - 7 2x = 26 X = 26/2 X = 13

2x+7=n
2 * (x + 7) 2x + 14 ■
The number is 7.
If the number is n, then twice the number is 2n and the sum of the two is n + 2n = 3n.
2x + 7 = 30 - 7 - 7 2x = 23 x = 23/2 x = 11.5
If: 2x+8 = 7 then x = -1/2
7 + 2x = x + 10 so 2x - x = 10 - 7 x = 3
