If 6 times a certain number is added to 8, the result is 32. Which of the following equations could be used to solve the problem?
6x = 32
6(x + 8) = 32
6x = 8 + 32
6x + 8 = 32
Solution:
Given, 6 times a certain number is added to 8, the result is 32.
We have to find the equations that could be used to solve the problem.
Let the number be x.
6 times a certain number = 6x
6 times a certain number added to 8 = 6x + 8
According to the question,
6x + 8 = 32
Therefore, the required equation is 6x + 8 = 32.
If 6 times a certain number is added to 8, the result is 32. Which of the following equations could be used to solve the problem?
Summary:
If 6 times a certain number is added to 8, the result is 32. The equation that could be used to solve the problem is 6x + 8 = 32.
