the sum of 54 and 4 times a number is 21, find the number please helppp

Sagot :

Assume the number to be ‘x’.

54 + 4x = 21

4x = 21 - 54

4x = -33

x = -33/4

x = -8.25

Answer:

- 8.25

Explanation:

let the unknown number be represented by x.

54 + 4x = 21

(subtract 54 from both sides)

4x = - 33

(divide both sides by 4)

x = - 8.25

i hope this helps! :D
