Question

The statement “The sum of twice a number and 18 is

greater than 25" can be expressed as
A. 2n + 18 = 25 B. 2(n + 18) > 25
Ç. 2(n + 18) > 50 D. 2n + 18 > 25​

Answer 1

Option D. 2n + 18 > 25

Explanation:

Let

n ---> the number

we know that

The phrase " The sum of twice a number and 18" is equal to sum the number n multiplied by 2 plus the number 18

so

`(2n+18)`

The symbol of " is greater than 25"

is

`> 25`

therefore

The complete algebraic expression is equal to

`(2n+18)> 25`
