Question

Six plus -2 times a number is the same as 26 plus six times the same number.

Answer 1

Explanation:

let the number be x

and according to question,

six + 2 times a number = 2x + 6

26 + 6 times a number = 6x + 26

→ 2x + 6 = 6x + 26

→ -6x + 2x = 26 - 6

→ -4x = 20

→ x = 20/4 = 5

→ x = 5

therefore, the number is 5.
