Question

2. Write an algebraic expression for the following statements and determine their consta
and variables. (Use only x and y as variable.)
a. Ramesh is 5 years younger than his friend.
b. The quotient of a number and 5.
C. The difference of two times a number and 7.
d. Five times the sum of a number and twice of another number.​

Answer 1

Answer: 1) let  Ramesh friend's  age be  x years

ramesh age(you can let y) = 5+x

y=5+x

or

0=5+x-y

2)

let the quotient be  y

and a number be  x

x/5= y

or

x/5 -y =0

3)  let the number be x

and difference be y

2(x-7)=y

or

2(x-7)-y=0

4)  let the  first number be x

and second number be y

5x+5y
