Answer:

d) A number plus eight is five times the number

Explanation:

Keywords within mathematical phrases can be "translated" into an algebraic equation.

Keywords

First, let's define some of these keywords that can help us answer the question.

  • "A number" can be replaced with the variable, x
  • "Plus" is obviously used to denote addition
  • "Is" is used in place of an equal sign
  • "Times" is used to show multiplication

Writing Out the Expression

In the figure, we see that the blocks "x" and "8" is equal to the block "5x". So, we can say that x plus 8 is equal to 5x. Then, using the keywords above we can replace the variables and numbers.

  • This creates the new sentence, "A number plus 8 is equal to five times a number."
