Translating a sentence into a multi-step equation

Answer:7x-4= 3

Step-by-step explanation:

4 less than the product of 7 and a number is equal to 3.

The answer is 7x-4= 3 beacuse:

(a.  whenever you have something less than , the first number in the sentence (in this cacse 4) goes after the second number (in this case 7) with a subtraction sign in the middle. (imagine this equation looking like 7-4 <u>for now)</u>.Thats a little trick i use whenever i have to write "something less than something"

(b. okay so now we know it has to be 7 times somethig -4=3, but now we just need to write the "product of 7 and a number" in proper form. in other words, whenever you get somethig times a number, it is always going to be  that number with an x right next to it. so thats why i made it 7x.

(c. "equals 3" is easy because you just turn it into an "=3".

(d. Now put it together. "4 less than the product of 7 and a number is equal to 3." becomes 7x-4=3.

Hope this helps :)) Also brainliest would be appreciated, worked pretty hard on this ! :D

The minimum and maximum temperature on a cold day can be modeled by the equation 2[x-6]+14=38 What are the min and max temperatu
SashulF [63]
Here are the steps to calculating the given equation:

Distribute 2 to x and 6: 2x-12+14=38
Group like terms: 2x+(-12+14)=38
Combine like terms: 2x+2=38
Subtract number on 'x' side: 2x+2-2=38-2
Simplify: 2x=36
Divide: 2x/2=36/2
Simplify: x=18
Label with correct terms: 
I cannot do this because you did not provide sufficient information, I would need to know what the difference between the two, or if 'x' stood for one particular temperature. Hope that helped enough with what you provided.
