3y+8 = 32 --> <u>The sum of thrice of a number and</u><u>8</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>3</u><u>2</u><u>.</u>
Reason:
When solving this word problem, we let "x" as variable as there is unknown number.
After that as in word problem it says "thrice a number" it gives 3x.
Then as there is "the sum of the unknown number and 8" it means 3x+8.
Lastly the sum would be equal to 3x+8=32.
<em><u>So</u></em><em><u>,</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>the</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>word</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>probl</u></em><em><u>em</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>for</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>this</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>eq</u></em><em><u>uation</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>is</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>"</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>The </u></em><em><u>sum</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>of thrice of a number and</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>8 is 32.</u></em>
