Respuesta :
let the number be x. If it is doubled = 2x.
8 less than a number doubled : 2x - 8
20 more than the number: x + 20
2x - 8 = x + 20
2x - x = 20 + 8
x = 28
The number is 28. A.
8 less than a number doubled : 2x - 8
20 more than the number: x + 20
2x - 8 = x + 20
2x - x = 20 + 8
x = 28
The number is 28. A.
Let us assume the unknown number to be = x
Now let us get down to forming the equation
2x - 8 = x + 20
2x - x = 20 + 8
x = 28
