Question:
Write an algebraic equation for the english statement. "Subtract 5 from the sum of x and 7 times 3 and the result is 20.
I came up with -5+6 = 7x3=20
Answer:
sum of x and 7 = x + 7
sum of x and 7 times 3 = (x + 7 ) * 3
Subtract 5 from the sum of x and 7 times 3 = (x + 7)3 - 5
Subtract 5 from the sum of x and 7 times 3 and the result is 20 ==>
==> (x + 7)3 - 5 = 20
or you can write, 3 (x + 7) - 5 = 20
hope you found the explanation useful.
