. When 2 times a number is increased by 4, the answer is the same as when 25is
decreased by the number. Find the number.

The number is 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the [number]

Rephrase the expression

2 times a number is increased by 4, it is the same as 25 decreased by the number

2x+4=25-x

Calculate

Given

2x+4=25-x

Add x on both sides

2x+4+x=25-x+x

3x+4=25

Subtract 4 on both sides

3x+4-4=25-4

3x=21

Divide 3 on both sides

3x/3=21/3

x=7

Hope this helps!! :)

the best buy, is the 4- kilogram bag of lollipops for $18.40.

step-by-step explanation:

i found my answer by dividing the cost of each bag by their respective weights.

14.88 divided by 2 = 7.44

17.29 divided by 3 = 5.77

18.4 divided by 4 = 4.6

24.4 divided by 5 = 4.88

by this, i found that the 4 kilo bag is the best buy.
