Sagot :

Problem no.1:

  • 1.) Seven increased by three times a number is thirteen. What is the unknown number?

Solution:

The mathematical phrase "Seven increased by three times a number is thirteen" translated to an algebraic equation is 7 + 3x = 13. The "x" represents the number and the "increased by" means that you have to add three times a number from seven.

Let x represent the unknown number. Break the word problem into smaller pieces and then represent each piece by an algebraic expression.

Seven 7

increased by + (addition sign)

three times 3

an unknown number x

is = (equal sign)

thirteen 13

Now, lets find the unknown number to the algebraic equation above, 7 + 3x = 13.

Solve for the unknown number.

  • 7 + 3x = 13
  • 3x = 13 - 7
  • 3x/3 = 6/3
  • x = 2

Checking:

Plug in the number in the algebraic equation to check if the answer is correct.

  • 7 + 3x = 13
  • 7 + 3(2) = 13
  • 7 + 6 = 13
  • 13 = 13 ✓

Answer:

  • The unknown number is 2.

Problem no.2:

  • 2.) Four times a number is equal to twice the sum of five and that number. Find the unknown number.

Solution:

The mathematical phrase "Four times a number is equal to twice the sum of five and that number" translated to an algebraic equation is 4x = 2(5 + x). The "x" represents the number and the "sum" means that you have to add a number.

Let x represent the unknown number. Break the word problem into smaller pieces and then represent each piece by an algebraic expression.

Four times 4 •

an unknown number x

is equal to = (equal sign)

twice the sum of five and that unknown number 2 • (5 + x)

Now, lets find the unknown number to the algebraic equation above, 4x = 2(5 + x).

Solve for the unknown number.

  • 4x = 2(5 + x)
  • 4x = 10 + 2x
  • 4x - 2x = 10
  • 2x/2 = 10/2
  • x = 5

Checking:

Plug in the number in the algebraic equation to check if the answer is correct.

  • 4x = 2(5 + x)
  • 4x = 10 + 2x
  • 4(5) = 10 + 2(5)
  • 20 = 10 + 10
  • 20 = 20

Answer:

  • The unknown number is 5.

Problem no.3:

  • 3.) When seven is subtracted from six and unknown number, the result is eleven. What is the unknown number.

Solution:

The mathematical phrase "when seven is subtracted from six and unknown number, the result is eleven" translated to an algebraic equation is 6x - 7 = 11. The "x" represents the number and the "subtracted from" means that you have to subtract.

Let x represent the unknown number. Break the word problem into smaller pieces and then represent each piece by an algebraic expression.

When seven 7

is subtracted from - (subtract sign)

six times an unknown number 6 • x

the result is = (equal sign)

eleven 11

Now, lets find the unknown number to the algebraic equation above, 6x - 7 = 11.

Solve for the unknown number.

  • 6x - 7 = 11
  • 6x = 11 + 7
  • 6x/6 = 18/6
  • x = 3

Checking:

Plug in the number in the algebraic equation to check if the answer is correct.

  • 6x - 7 = 11
  • 6(3) - 7 = 11
  • 18 - 7 = 11
  • 11 = 11

Answer:

  • The unknown number is 3.
