Let the number be x: 5x+x = 24 6x = 24 x = 4
5x - 11 = 24 5x = 35 x = 7
2.6666666666666 infinite , or 4. Depending how the question is actually worded. if it is: 4 + (5x) = 24 then x is 4 Proof: 5x + 4 = 24 5x = 24 -4 5x = 20 x = 20/5 = 4 if it is: (4 + 5)x = 24 then x is 2.6666666 infinite Proof: (4+5)x = 24 9x = 24 x = 24/9 = 2 6/9 = 2.6666666 ....
Let's take a moment to appreciate the beauty of this equation. First, we combine like terms: -5x and -x become -6x. Then, we add 24 to get our final answer, which is 24-6x. Just like painting a happy little tree, math can be a wonderful adventure of simplifying and combining elements to find the sum.
X2 - 5X = 24 X2 - 5X - 24 = 0 (X - 8)(X + 3) X = 8 ----------------and X = - 3 --------------
Let the number be x: 5x+x = 24 6x = 24 x = 4
5x - 11 = 24 5x = 35 x = 7
Let x represent the number. 2 times the number would be 2x, and 5 times the number would be 5x. The sum of the two would be 2X + 5x = 7x

x2-5x = 24 x2-5x-24 = 0 (x-8)(x+3) = 0 x = 8 or x -3
6x + 4 = 5x x = -4

X2 - 5X = 24 X2 - 5X - 24 = 0 (X - 8)(X + 3) X = 8 ----------------and X = - 3 --------------
9x
8x = 5x+24 8x-5x = 24 3x = 24 x = 8
As an algebraic expression it is: 5(x+6) which is equivalent to 5x+30
