A number problem states, “–5 times a number, minus 22 gives a result of 23.” What is the number?

im pretty sure its -9

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation explained would look something like this...

-5x-22=23

so you would isolate the variable by first adding 22 to both sides and the dividing by -5 on both sides

-5x-22=23

    +22  +22

-5x/-5=45/-5

x=-9

on monday rodney ate 1/4th of the sandwich = 3/12

on tuesday he ate 1/3rd of the sandwich = 4/12

therefore in total he has eaten = 3/12 + 4/12 = 7/12

thus we can say that he has eaten 7/12 of the sandwich on monday and tuesday alltogether.
