Question

How do you translate the following statement "Seven times a number, added to the sum of the number and six" into an algebraic expression?

Answer 1

`7x+(x+6)`

Explanation:

Let us assume that the number is `x`
Now the statement:
"`color (green)"Seven times a number",` `color (red)"added to"` the `color (blue)"sum of the number"` `color(blue)" and six"`"

Seven times a number `->` `7` multiplied by the number `x->7x`
added to `-> +` the number in the part following of statement
sum of the number and six`->x+6`

All three steps written together

`7xxx` `+` `(x+6)` , gives us the required algebraic expression

`7x+(x+6)`
