Write the given phrase as an algebraic expression. Use the variable x to represent the unknown number.

Alchen [17]

Hello! I would love to help!

Let's start with this part of the equation: "the sum of a number and seven"

Alright. We know that x represents an unknown number. Do you see a part of the equation that could translate to "an unknown number?"

I see "a number." So let's fill X in for "a number.

Alright. So now we have "the sum of x and 7."

Next, let's remember that sum means adding. So we just need to 7 to x

X+7

So, now instead of "the sum of a number and 7" we have x+7.

Alright. Now we just have to do the "twice." When it is asking for "twice", it is asking us to multiply our answer by two. But we need to multiply both x and 7. The best way to do that is to put our "x+7" in parenthesis and put a two outside.

2(x+7)

That's your answer! 2(x+7)

Hope this helped! Comment if you have any questions!

Part A: subtract 6 from both sides
Divide by -3 on both sides
X=-3
Part B: add like terms (-2K-3k)
Add 12 to both sides
Add 5k to both sides
Divide by 5 on both sides
K=3
Part C: distribute 6 into the parentheses
Add like terms together (36-5)
Subtract 1 from both sides
Subtract 36v from both sides
Divide by -30 on both sides
-1=v
