Julio ​says, "If you subtract 12 from my number and multiply the difference by -5​, the result is -40​." What is ​Julio's ​number?

Respuesta :

vialia

Answer:

Julio's number is 212

Step-by-step explanation:

(x - 12) ÷ -5 = -40

x - 12 = -40 times -5

x - 12 = 200

x = 200 + 12

x = 212

Check:

(x - 12) ÷ -5 = -40

((212 - 12)) ÷ -5 = -40

200 ÷ -5 = -40

-40 = -40
