Question

Which equation represents "the sum of eight times a number and seven is twice the number"? 8(7 + 2N) 8N = 7 + 2N 7N + 8 = 2N 8N + 7 = 2N

Answer 1

D.
`8N+7=2N`

Explanation:

Let N represent the number.

We are asked to find the equation that satisfies the given description.

8 times the number would be
`8N`.

The sum of eight times a number and seven would be
`8N+7`.

Twice the number would be
`2N`.

To find our required equation, we will equate the sum of eight times a number and seven to twice the number as:

`8N+7=2N`

Therefore, option D is the correct choice.

Answer 2

the sum of 8 times a number and 7 is twice the number....

8n + 7 = 2n <==
