Respuesta :

Answer:

a. 2n = 3n − 12, 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be represented by n.

Then 2 times the number is 2*n = 2n

3 times the number = 3*n = 3n

12 minus 3 times the number is 3n-12

It is given that 2 times the number is the same as 12 minus 3 times the number.

Expressing this equation form:

[tex]\[2n=3n-12\][/tex]

Solving the equation,

[tex]\[3n-2n=12\][/tex]

[tex]\[=> n=12\][/tex]

Hence the required number is 12.
