Four times a number is 35 less than the product of the same number and -3 what is the number?
-
Lets assume number is x
As per given,
4x = -3x + 35
4x + 3x = 35
7x = 35
x = 35/7 = 5
As per given,
4x = -3x + 35
4x + 3x = 35
7x = 35
x = 35/7 = 5
-
4x -35 = -3x
7x = 35
x = 5
Testing for proof
4x5 = 20
-3x 5 = -15
20 - -15 = 35.
Your number is 5
7x = 35
x = 5
Testing for proof
4x5 = 20
-3x 5 = -15
20 - -15 = 35.
Your number is 5
