Answer:
_______
7x + 2 = 5
_______
Step-by-step explanation:
_______________
Two more than the product of A NUMBER and 7 is equal to 5.
That “a number” we can assume is x.
_______________
Two more than the PRODUCT OF (x) AND (7) is equal to 5.
So far, we have x. The sentence says “product of x and 7” which we can translate to 7x
_______________
TWO MORE THAN (7x) is equal to 5.
So that tells us to ADD 2 to (7x) >>> (7x + 2)
_______________
(7x+2) IS EQUAL to 5.
This tells us:
7x + 2 = 5
