Algebra.Com's Answer #332473 by Theo(13342)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! let x be the number.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "this statement translates to x/5 + 7 = 42 \n" ); document.write( "subtract 7 from both sides of this equation to get x/5 = 35 \n" ); document.write( "multiply both sides of this equation by 5 to get x = 5*35 = 175 \n" ); document.write( "that's your answer.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the quotient of 175 and 5 is equal to 175/5 = 35 \n" ); document.write( "7 more than that equals 35 + 7 = 42\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "here's a reference that might help you translate verbal expressions into equation form.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "http://www.delmar.edu/math/MLC/Forms/Translating_Verbal_Expressions.pdf \n" ); document.write( " |
