Question

Explain how to write and evaluate an algebraic expression.

thirteen less than the quotient of forty and a number; evaluate when n = 2.

Answer 1

$\huge{\mathbb{\purple{ A{\pink{N{\green{S[\blue{W{\red{ E{\orange{R}}}}}}}}}}}}]$

So you would start with 40/n because quotient means division and then it would be (40/n) - 13 (40 divided by n then minus 13) because the answer is thirteen less than the quotient of those numbers. since it wants you to evaluate for n=2 you would do 40/2 which is 20 then subtract 13 which is 7.

So write the expression as (40/n) -13 and when you evaluate just stick the 2 where the n is for (40/2) - 13

20 - 13

= 7

Answer 2

$\huge{\mathbb{\purple{ A{\pink{N{\green{S[\blue{W{\red{ E{\orange{R}}}}}}}}}}}}]$

So you would start with 40/n because quotient means division and then it would be (40/n) - 13 (40 divided by n then minus 13) because the answer is thirteen less than the quotient of those numbers. since it wants you to evaluate for n=2 you would do 40/2 which is 20 then subtract 13 which is 7.

So write the expression as (40/n) -13 and when you evaluate just stick the 2 where the n is for (40/2) - 13

20 - 13

= 7
