Q: Three times the difference of a number and seven is negative six. Find the number.

I need help forming the formula

Answer 1

Answer: 39

Explanation:

Three times the difference of a number is seven and negative six. I think that’s what you’re trying to say, or at least, I hope so.

7 minus -6 = 13. Multiply 3 and 13 to get 39.

The formula is just 3(7 - (-6).
