The sum of twice a number and 13 is 75

Answer 1

First, you need to use the information given to create an equation.

Since the sum of twice a number and 13 is 75, let 2x + 13 = 75.

Then, solve for x by subtracting 13 from both sides and then dividing both sides by 2.

Answer 2

2x+13 = 75

2x = 62

x = 31
