Answer: The number is 14 , look into the steps for more explanations.
Explanation:
Twice the sum of a number and seven is three times the number .
in this case we will represent that number by the variable x.
The sum of x and 7 is x+7
Twice that will be 2(x +7)
That has to equation three times the number which will make it
2(x+7) = 3x Now solve for x to find the number by distributing
2x + 14 = 3x Subtract 2x from both sides
2x -2x
14 = 1x Divide both sides by 1
x = 14
