Write the following as expressions (use 'x' for the unknown)-Half the product of five and a number.
(1/2)(5) + x, which can also be written (5/2) + x.

Also, I was wondering if you could tell me if I did this one correctly-Half a number added to seven x/2+7.
Yes, this is right.
NOTE: (x/2) + 7 can also be written (1/2)(x) + 7.
