the sum of a number and six is seven times the number. what is a translation of the sentence into an equation?
2 answers:
"The sum of" means two or more numbers added together.
A number in this case can be represented by the letter 'n' as we don't know the value of the number.
Therefore, the sum of a number and six would be n + 6
Seven times the number would be 7n.
Hence, if they are equal to each other, in equation form it would be:
n + 6 = 7n
If you wanted to go a step further and work out what the number was, you could rearrange the equation:
n + 6 = 7n
6 = 7n - n
6 = 6n
1 = n
The number is 1.
The translation of the sentence into a equation would be:
n + 6 x 7 or 7(n + 6)

Step-by-step explanation:
8y = -40
(divide by 8)
y = -5
(plug it in to one of the equations)
3x + 6*-5 = -18
3x + -30 = -18
3x = 12
x = 4

It is shifted down 2 units.

then she turns around and grabs those 4329.73 and put them in an account getting 8% APR I assume, so is annual compounding, for 7 years.

add both amounts, and that's her investment for the 11 years.
