Question

Translate....Three times the sum of ten and half a number into a variable expression

Answer 1

Answer:

$\[30 + \frac{3x}{2}\]$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be represented by x.

Then half of the number will be represented by $\[\frac{x}{2}\]$

Sum of ten and half the number is $\[10 + \frac{x}{2}\]$

Finally , Three times the sum of ten and half the number will be represented as:

$\[3 \times (10 + \frac{x}{2})\]$

This can be simplified as:

$\[30 + \frac{3x}{2}\]$
