Fifteen less than eight tiles a number is equal to to 11 more than six times the number. What is the number ?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The number [tex]=13[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets assume that the number be [tex]x[/tex] .

So accordingly

We have fifteen less than eight times a number that is [tex]8(x)-15[/tex]

And we have,

Eleven more than six times of that number that is [tex]6(x)+11[/tex]

Equating both.

[tex]8(x)-15[/tex] = [tex]6(x)+11[/tex]

Subtracting [tex]6(x)[/tex] and adding[tex]15[/tex] both sides of the equation.

[tex]8(x)-6(x) = 15+11[/tex]

[tex]2(x)) = 26[/tex]

So finally the number [tex]=13[/tex].

Dividing both sides with 13.

[tex]x = \frac{26}{2} =13[/tex]
