Four times a number was 22 greater than twice the same number. What was the number?

11

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up an equation

Based on the question, we can determine that 4x = 22 + 2x where x in is the number

"Four times a number" -> 4x

"was" -> =

"22 greater than" -> 22 +

"twice the same number" -> 2x

Put the underlined parts together to get 4x = 22 + 2x

Solve equation

Rearrange/collect like terms to solve for x by subtracting 2x from both sides

4x = 22 + 2x

2x = 22

Solve for x by dividing each side by 2

2x = 22

x = 11

Final Answer

x = 11

17 1/3

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

given perimeter: 28cm

length: 9cm

atp,

2(l+w)=p of the reactangle

2(9+x)=28

18+2x=28

2x=28-18

x=10/2

x=5

therefore width is 5 cm
