2x + 7 = 15 Subtract 7 from both sides: 2x = 8 Divide both sides by 2: x = 4
40 + 2n
49+2x

A certain number increased by 4
2x + 7 = 15 Subtract 7 from both sides: 2x = 8 Divide both sides by 2: x = 4
40 + 2n
49+2x

2X + 3
There are two possible (and different) answers: 2x + 3y = 12 or 2*(x + 3y)= 12 The first one is (twice a number) increased by (three times another) The second is twice (a number increased by (three times another)).
A certain number increased by 4

There is no selected number so it would be a variable. The answer is 2n-9 (n is the number which you choose)
Let the number be x and so the expression is: 2x+3
20+2x
