the sum of twice a number and 15 less than the number is the same as the difference between -19 and the number. What is the number?

  -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Twice a number: 2n.

15 less than the number: n-15.

The sum of those: (2n) +(n-15) = 3n-15.

__

The difference between -19 and the number: -19-n

__

These values are the same, so we have ...

  3n -15 = -19 -n

  4n = -4 . . . . . . . . add n+15 to both sides

  n = -1 . . . . . . . . .  divide by -4

The number is -1.

step-by-step explanation:

the multiplicative inverse of a fraction a/b is b/a. for the multiplicative inverse of a real number, divide 1 by the number. for example, the reciprocal of 5 is one fifth 1/5 or 0.2, and the reciprocal of 0.25 is 1 divided by 0.25, or 4.

-6 is the correct option from the above given options
