The difference of three times a number and 4 is 32. Find the number

3x - 4 = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve for x to find the number (knowing that x is the unknown number).

3x - 4 = 32

3x = 32 + 4

3x = 36

x/3 = 36/3

x = 12

true statements:

a) x + y = y + x   ⇒ commutative property of addition

b) (x * y) * z = x * (y * z) ⇒ associative property of multiplication

d) (x + y) + z = x + (y + z) ⇒ associative property of addition

false statements:

c) x - y = y - x   should be: x - y = - y + x

e) (x - y) - z = x - (y - z) should be: (x - y) - z = x - (y + z)
