Question

10 more than the quotient of a number and 8 is at least 12. - how would I write this in a "algebraic expression"?

Answer 1

X - the number
the quotient of the number and 8 = x/8
10 more than the quotient of the number and 8 = (x/8)+10
10 more than the quotient of the number and 8 is at least 12 = (x/8)+10≥12

$\frac{x}{8}+10 \geq 12$
