Question

Form the equation and find the value of the number:

a) Five times of a number added to 4 is 29 .’

b) 7 subtracted from three times of a number is 23.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

let the number be x

5 times number added to 4 is 29

5x + 4 = 29

5x = 29-4

5x= 25

x= 5

the equation is 5x+4= 29

and the number is 5

(b)

let the number be x

3x -7 = 23 is the equation

3x= 23+7

3x= 30

x= 30/3

x = 10

the number is 10
