Question

form algebraic expression for each of the following statements a 3 more than a number b 5 less than a number c 2 taken away froma a number d 1 added to twice a number e 2 takenaway from a number f two- third of a number a x+3 b x-5 c 2x d 2x=6 e 3x-2 f 2/3x​

Answer 1

Answer:

• 3 more than a number= x + 3
• 5 less than a number = x - 5
• 2 taken away from  a number = x - 2
• 1 added to twice a number  2x + 1
• 2 takenaway from a number of two- third of a number  = 2/3 x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

1) If the number is x

then 3 more than a number = x + 3

2)  If the number is x

then 5 less than a number = x - 5

3)  If the number is x

2 taken away from a number = x- 2

4) If the number is x

Twice a number = 2x

1 added to twice a number = 2x + 1

5)  If the number is x

two-third of a number = 2/3 x

2 takeaways from a number of two-third of a number =2/3 x - 2
