Question

How do you translate "six times a number increased by eleven" into an algebraic expression?

Answer 1

The algebraic expression would be `6n+11`.

Explanation:

You can "translate" the sentence from English into math, like this:

`stackrel(6) overbrace("Six") " " stackrel(xx) overbrace("times") " " stackrel(n) overbrace("a number") " " stackrel(+) overbrace("increased by") " " stackrel(11) overbrace("eleven")`

Now you can copy it down and simplify it a little bit:

`color(white)=6xxn+11`

`=6n+11`

That's it. Hope this helped!

Answer 2

`6*x+11`

Explanation:

Six(6) times (*) a number (x) increased by (+) eleven (11)
