Question

Write the phrase the quotient of ten and a number,increase by six as an algebraic expression use x to represent the unknown value

Answer 1

You need to take the words apart and do them step by step. “The quotient of 10 and a number” is 10/x (“a number” is x because it is an unknown value). Then to “increase by six) you need to add six. So, the expression is: 10/x+6 or (10/x)+6. Hope this helped!
