Question

8. 2 subtracted from one-fifth of a number gives 1. Find the number.
9. If 33 is added to half of a number, the result is double the number. Find the numbe​

Answer 1

1/5x-2=1
1/5x=3
X=15

9. 33+x/2=2x
X=22

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

8) 2 – 1/5×(X) = 1

X/5 = 1 – 2 = (–1)

X = –1 × 5 = (–5)

Therefore,X = (–5)

9) 33 + (1/2 × X) = 2X

(X/2) – 2X = –33

X/2 – 4X/2 = –33

–3X/2 = –33

3X/2 = 33

3X = 33 × 2 = 66

X = 66/3=22
