How do I turn this into a algebraic expression, eight more than six times a number added to one more than nine times the number
Stephany/Peter -- I did the last one for you. Now it's your turn.
I'll be glad to check your answer.
To turn the given statement into an algebraic expression, we need to break it down and identify the variables and operations involved.
Let's assign a variable to the unknown number. Let's say the number is "x".
Now let's break down the given statement step by step:
1. "Six times a number": This can be written as 6x.
2. "Eight more than six times a number": We add 8 to 6x, giving us 8 + 6x.
3. "One more than nine times the number": We multiply 9 by the number x and add 1, giving us 9x + 1.
Finally, we need to combine the two expressions:
"Eight more than six times a number added to one more than nine times the number" can be expressed as:
(8 + 6x) + (9x + 1)
Simplifying this expression further is possible if required.
