STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:
Firstly, you need to understand that are many operations symbols that are used in algebra. The operations are listed below
[tex]+\text{ , - , }\times,\text{ }\frac{\square}{\square}[/tex]
When translating a word statement into an algebraic equation, the following points are very important
0. Read the problem carefully and figure out what you are asked to find
,
1. Assign a variable to what you are looking for
,
2. Write down the variables
,
3. Write down the expression or equation
As you can see from the first question given,
A number multiplied by 24
Firstly, we need to assign a variable.
Let the variable be m
The next step is to identify the operation is the statement
The mathematical operation is multiplication
Hence, the expression is written below as
A number multiplied by 24 = m x 24
PART 4
A number multiplied by 2 and then take away 21
Firstly, assign a variable
Let the variable be m
Secondly, multiply the variable by 2
m x 2 = 2m
Take away mean minus
The next thing is to take away 21
Therefore, we have
2m - 21
