(2x - 4) or [ 2(x - 2) ].
If the largest integer is subtracted from four times the smallest, the result is 4 more than twice the middle integer. Let the smallest integer be x, then the others are x + 2 and x+ 4. Therefore 4x - (x + 4) = 2 (x + 2 ) + 4 Expanding, we get 4x -x -4 = 2x + 4 + 4 Gathering terms: x = 12 Thus the three integers are 12, 14 and 16.
Thus: 2*(4+x) = x-3, or x = -11.
2x + 4 < x x < -4
As an algebraic expression it is: 2x+4
Let's call "a number" x. Then 5 more than twice x is 5 + 2x.
the equation is 2x + 4 = x - 3 solving it yields x = -7
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.
It is: 2x+4 = 8 and the value of x is 2

The equation can be simplified as 4+2x=x-6. Moving similar entities to similar sides, the equation becomes 2x-x=-6-4. We then get x=-10.

If the number is represented by X, then '4 more than a number' is represented by (X+4).
