This problem is about mathematical language.

We need to transform the given statement in an algebraic expression. In order to do that, we need to pay attention to each part of the sentence.

• "increased" means sum.

,

• "Five times" means multiplying by 5.

Using the indications above, we can form the following expression


24+5x

Notice that we included the "addition" or increase and the "5 times", or multiplication by 5.
