Answer:

  1. correct
  2. -5, correct
  3. 10
  4. -2

Step-by-step explanation:

3.

You want the number such that twice the difference of the number and 3 is 4 more than the number.

  2(x -3) = x +4

  2x -6 = x +4 . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  x = 10 . . . . . . . . . add 6-x

The number is 10.

4.

You want the number such that 3 times the number is twice the difference of the number and 1.

  3x = 2(x -1)

  3x = 2x -2 . . . . eliminate parentheses

  x = -2 . . . . . subtract 2x

The number is -2.
