2is added to twice a certain number and the sum is doubled .the result is 10 less than 5 times the original number

14

Step-by-step explanation:

2(2n + 2)= 5n - 10

4n + 4 = 5n - 10

n=14

2 is added to twice a certain number and the sum is doubled. The original number is 14

Solution:

Let x be the original number

Given that the 2 is added to twice of x. This can be represented as (2 + 2x)

Now it is given that the sum is doubled which means 2(2 + 2x)

The result is 10 less than 5 times the original number "x" which means 2(2 + 2x) = 5x - 10

The above expression is solved to get the value of original number

2(2 + 2x) = 5x - 10

4 + 4x = 5x - 10

On rewriting the above expression, we get

5x - 10 -4 -4x = 0

x - 14 = 0

x = 14

Hence the original number is 14

from the figure we get,

the x axis shows   the months and,

the y-axis shows the number of satisfied customer.

each line or each cell in upward direction (y-axis) shows 500.

the appropriate scale for the y - axis is: -

a = 2000 customers

b = 4000 customers

c = 6000 customers

d = 8000 customers

e = 10000 customers

f = 12000 customers

g = 14000 customers
