Question

Translate each English phrase in the following problem into an algebraic expression and set up the related equation. Let z be the unknown number. The difference between a number and −23 − 23 is equal to the product of the number and 13 13 . Step 2 of 3 : Translate "the product of the number and 13 13 ".

Answer 1

The English phrase of the obtained equation is 12 times z subtracted by 3. The obtained equation after solving is 12z -23

What exactly is simplification?

Simplifying means making something easier to do or comprehend, as well as making something less difficult.

Given data;

z be the unknown number

Given conditions;

1. The difference between a number and −23.

2.−23 is equal to the product of the number and 13.

The mathematical form of the given phrase is;

⇒ z - (-23) = z × 13

⇒z+23 = 13z

⇒12z -23

The English phrase of the obtained equation is 12 times z subtracted by 3.

Hence the simplification of the given expressions is 12z -23.
