13 less than fourteen times a certain number is twenty-nine more than 7 times that number. What is the number? (I only need the answer) A. 12
B.6
C.7
D.9

B. 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the [certain number]

Rephrase the expression

13 less than fourteen times a certain number is twenty-nine more than 7 times that number

14x-13=7x+29

Calculate

Given

14x-13=7x+29

Add 13 on both sides

14x-13+13=7x+29+13

14x=7x+42

Subtract 7x on both sides

14x-7x=7x+42-7x

7x=42

Divide 7 on both sides

7x/7=42/7

x=6

Hope this helps!! :)

Please let me know if you have any questions

hey there!

12 is twice as much as 6 because 6 goes into 12 2 times.

since the rabbit is twice as tall, we should multiply the weight of the first rabbit, 0.25, by 2.

0.25 x 2 = 0.5

therefore, the 12 inch chocolate rabbit weighs 0.5 lb, or half a pound.

hope this !

example 2 – simplify: step 1: completely factor both the numerators and denominators of all fractions. step 2: change the division sign to a multiplication sign and flip (or reciprocate) the fraction after the division sign; essential you need to multiply by the reciprocal. step 3 : cancel or reduce the fractions.
