3x + 2
Thirty decreased by three times a number is six less than three times the number. Find the number.
number = (3x) + 2
6x+2
Let the number be x 4x - 2 < 3x 4x - 3x < 2 x < 2 (x must be less than 2 for that to be possible)
Five times the sum of 6 and a number is 2 more than the numberWrite the equation5(6 + x) - 2 = x30 + 5x - 2 = x5x + 28 = x4x = -28x = -7Check: 5 (6 + (-7)) - 2 = -75(-1) - 2 = -7
2x + 6
2 times the quantity 4 greater than a number
four times a number is 6 more than three times a second number while 8 times the first number is 22 less than 7 times the second number. find the 2 numbers
3x + 2 is less than or equal to 37
Let the unknown number be x: 8x+1 = 2x+25 8x-2x = 25-1 6x = 24 x = 4
2 x = 8 + 4x
