Question

Algebra Expression:fifteen pages longer than a quarter the length of the first draft

Answer 1

`15+(x)/(4)`

Explanation:

Let the original draft have length x.

Given that the new graph has pages equal to 15 more than the quarter length of the first draft

Quarter length of I draft =
`(x)/(4)`

To find 15 pages more we add 15 to this

15 more than the quarter length of the first draft=
`15+(x)/(4)`

So Algrbra expression for the requirement is

`15+(x)/(4)`

Verify:

From the length of new draft subtract 5 and multiply by 4. WE get length of original draft. THus our answer is correct
