Product of 4 and a number translates to 4x because the word product means multiplication.
We then need to subtract one from that which would be 4x - 1.
The word is translates to "equals" so 4x - 1 = 11 is the translation of the whole problem.
Now solve that equation.
4x - 1 = 11
1st add +1 +1
2nd simplify 4x = 12
3rd divide. 4 4
x = 3

Answer:The area of a circle with diameter 3.5 is 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
M= 1/2(x)+7
Step-by-step explanation:
Let M = Martha.
Let X = Number of Lucy's blocks.
Martha has half the amount as Lucy - 1/2(x)
Then 7 more than that - 1/2 (x) + 7
Answer:
D 36
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Write the information algebraically</em>
c = 3a
c + a = 48
c = children, a = adults
<em>In the second sentence (in bold), we can replace c with 3a</em>
c + a = 48 → 3a + a = 48
<em>Simplify</em>
3a + a = 48 → 4a = 48 → a = 12 (divide both sides by 4)
<em>We can then substitute or plug in a = 12 into the original equation:</em>
c + a = 48 → c + 12 = 48 → c = 36 (subtract 12 from both sides)
<h3>There are 36 children</h3>
