The algebraic expression uses the terms to denote symbols
sum of means addition
difference of means subtraction
product of means multiplication
quotient of means division
Here we have the term 6x
which actually means 6 times x or
6 multiplied by x
hence by multiplication we use the word product of
so we have the product of 6 and a number as our right answer
Answer:
a = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
First we need to add (x^2+3x) to (3x^2+ax),
(x^2+3x)+(3x^2+ax)
Expand
= x^2+3x+3x^2+ax
Collect the like terms
= x^2+3x^2+3x+ax
= 4x^2 + 3x + ax
= 4x^2+(3+a)x
Equate the solution to 4x^2+12x
4x^2+(3+a)x = 4x^2+12x
Comparing the like terms on both sides
(3+a)x =12x
3 + a = 12
a = 12 - 3
a = 9
Hence the value of a is 9
