Question 782230: six times the difference of twice a number and 10 yields the number increased by 28
Answer by algebrahouse.com(1659) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x = the number
6(2x - 10) = x + 28 {six times the difference of twice the number and 10 equals the number plus 28}
12x - 60 = x + 28 {used distributive property}
11x - 60 = 28 {subtracted x from each side}
11x = 88 {added 60 to each side}
x = 8 {divided each side by 11}
