Answer 2

Answer:

Expression representing number of text messages sent on Tuesday = 2x , where x = text messages sent on Monday

Step-by-step explanation:

Let number of messages sent on Monday = x

So, number if messages sent on Tuesday = 2 times x = 2x

Number of texts sent on Wednesday = 12 more than texts sent on Tuesday = 2x + 12

Number of texts sent on Thursday = Half the texts sent on Wednesday =   1/2 (2x + 12) = x + 6
