Question 1059223: I need to know how to write these following sentences into equations. 1.Eight times a number plus 6 less than twice the number is 34. 2. 26 more than the product of a number and 17 is (-42). 3. Twelve less than the quotient of a number and 8 is (-1). Please answer back! My math grade depends on it!
1. Eight times a number plus 6 less than twice the number is 34. 8x + (2x-6) = 34.
2. 26 more than the product of a number and 17 is (-42). 17x + 26 = -42.
3. Twelve less than the quotient of a number and 8 is (-1). = -1.
