Question

Which phrase matches the algebraic expression below? (1 point)

Answer 1

Answer:

Three times the difference of x and seven plus ten

Step-by-step explanation:

In this exercise, we are expected to convert a mathematical expression to a word problem

Given the expresion

3(x - 7) + 10

we can see that the expression has two parts or terms

the first term is 3(x - 7)

which can be translated as three times the difference of x and 7

the second part is a constant term of 10, it carries a positive sign

so we have to add it up to the first term hence the first term plus 10

In all the word to expression the mathematical relation is

Three times the difference of x and seven plus ten
