Question

Explain how to write and evaluate an algebraic expression.

one more than the product of a number and seven decreased by five; evaluate when n=6

Answer 1

Replace critical words with variables, numbers, and operations. More than is addition, the product is multiplication and decreased by is subtraction. The constants are 1, 7, and 5. The expression is 1 + 7n – 5. To evaluate the expression, substitute 6 for the variable and then simplify the order of operations. The value when n = 6 is 38.Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

math pretty much has its own language. In an expression, u have to " break it apart " to make each term

one more then the product of a number and 7 decreased by 5...
" product " means multiply.....so the product of a number and 7 would be 7n.
one more then the product....(7n + 1)....." decreased" means subtract....
so ur expression is : (7n + 1) - 5

(7n + 1) - 5....when n = 6
(7(6) + 1) - 5 =
43 - 5 =
38 <==
