Question

Peter was thinking of a number. Peter divides by 12 then adds 6 to get an answer of 29. Form an equation with

x
from the information.

Answer 1

29 = (x/12) +6

Explanation:

29 is the final result, so setting it up, you would be dividing the unknown number by 12 and then adding 6 to get 29. To find x you would do the reverse and subtract 6 from 29 and then multiply by 12
