x+5 divided by 2 =6
The phrase "the sum of twice a number and 5 is 17" can be translated into an equation. Let the unknown number be represented by ( x ). The equation can be written as ( 2x + 5 = 17 ).
1.6
1/2x=-5
The second number in an addition equation is called the "addend." In an equation like 3 + 5 = 8, the number 5 is the addend that follows the first addend, which is 3. The result of the addition is known as the "sum."
x/2 + 5
The phrase "the sum of twice a number and 5 is 17" can be translated into an equation. Let the unknown number be represented by ( x ). The equation can be written as ( 2x + 5 = 17 ).
-5 + x
(n + 5)/2
5x+17

the quotient of 12 and a number h
1/2x=-5
Half of 18 is 9 and 5+4 = 9 so the number is 5
x/2 + 5
3Y - 2 = X + 5 This presumes "a number" and "x" are two separate values. If they are the same number, the equation would be 3X - 2 = X + 5. In this equation, X = 3.5.
.5[12+(t/4)]
Your equation would be 5(x + 4). In this case it's easiest to work backwards, starting with the "sum of a number and four" part of the problem. This is simply written as x + 4, since we don't know what "a number" is referring to and have to call it x. Then we just need to multiply that answer by 5, so we'd write the equation as 5 * (x + 4) or 5(x + 4). Make sure you have the parentheses, because if not it changes the answer entirely.
