Write each phrase as an algebraic expression.
1.Seven less than n
2.A number less eleven
3.24 divided by some number
4.The quotient of -15 and w.
5.Three more than x.
I'll do two of them for you. Which two would you like me to show you?
2.A number less eleven.
4.The quotient of -15 and w.
Thanks
2.A number less eleven.
n - 11
4.The quotient of -15 and w
This problem isn't clear.
It could be
-15/w
or
w/-15
1. Seven less than n can be written as n - 7.
To get this expression, you start with the variable n and subtract 7 from it.
2. A number less eleven can be written as x - 11.
To get this expression, you start with the variable x and subtract 11 from it.
3. 24 divided by some number can be written as 24 / x.
To get this expression, you use the division symbol (/) and then write the variable x, representing the number you are dividing by.
4. The quotient of -15 and w can be written as -15 / w.
To get this expression, you use the division symbol (/) and then write the variable w, representing the number you are dividing by.
5. Three more than x can be written as x + 3.
To get this expression, you start with the variable x and then add 3 to it.
