Let's call the unknown number x.
We want for what number(s) is x + 2x > x -1 true.
x + 2x > x -1
Combine like terms:
3x > x - 1
Subtract x from each side:
2x > -1
Divide each side by 2:
x > -1/2
Any number greater than -1/2 will work.
There is no selected number so it would be a variable. The answer is 2n-9 (n is the number which you choose)
Let the unknown number be x and so the expression is: 2x-3
2x + 7 = 15 Subtract 7 from both sides: 2x = 8 Divide both sides by 2: x = 4
2n - 8 < 5n + 10 -3n < 18 n < -6
If the number is n then twice the number is 2n and 7 less than twice the number is 2n - 7This could also be a boolean variable based on another variable. If the number is less than or equal to 3.5, the variable is false. Otherwise, it is true.
twice an unknown number less one and one-half times the same number equals two ---- Let the unknown number be "x":: Equation: 2x - (3/2)x = 2
There is no selected number so it would be a variable. The answer is 2n-9 (n is the number which you choose)
Let the unknown number be x and so the expression is: 2x-3
As an algebraic expression this is written 2x - 12, where x is the unknown number.
Let the unknown number be x and so the algebraic expression is: 2x -13
2x + 7 = 15 Subtract 7 from both sides: 2x = 8 Divide both sides by 2: x = 4
2n - 8 < 5n + 10 -3n < 18 n < -6
Let the number be x Twice a number means 2x 7 less than twice a number means 2x-7
Let the unknown number be x: x-4 = 2x -4 = 2x-x -4 = x So the number is -4
twice a number can be 2x and six less than it is 2x-6.
If the number is n then twice the number is 2n and 7 less than twice the number is 2n - 7This could also be a boolean variable based on another variable. If the number is less than or equal to 3.5, the variable is false. Otherwise, it is true.
x + x - 3 = 2x - 3
