Question

11. Choose the right expression or equation that best represents the mathematical statement: ___________

Answer 1

Hey there!

$Twice: 2 \\ Number: x \\ plus: + \\ is: = (equal) \\ twelve: 12 \\ So, 2x + 6 = 12 (answer)$

It can't be:

• $\frac{1}{2} x + 6 = 12$ because, its not asking half of a number plus six is twelve

• $2x -6 = 12$ because its not asking twice a number minus six is twelve

• $3x + 6 = 12$ because its not asking three times a number plus 6 is twelve

(So, $A,B,D$ would most likely be incorrect since they aren't doing anything with the representation!)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

◦ But the answer is: $2x + 6 = 12 (B)$ because it is stating what is representing in this equation sentence!

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
