16 more than -7 times a number is 65. What is the number?

the number is -7.

Step-by-step explanation:

in order to solve this word problem we need to find the number that is 16 more than -7times and will equal to 65.

let the number be x

-7times the number will be expressed as

              = -7 × x

              = -7x

to find the number that is 16 more than -7x

-7x + 16 = 65

we are going to collect the like terms

-7x = 65 - 16

-7x =  49

divide both sides by -7

-7x/-7 = 49/-7

x = -7

therefore the number is -7.
