Answer:


(x)/(2)+7

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to write the equivalent expression for the phrase "seven more than half a number".

Let the number is x.

Half of the number can be written as
(x)/(2)

Now, in order to write the expression for 'seven more than half of the number', we have to add 7 to the above expression.

Hence, seven more than half a number can be written as
(x)/(2)+7

Therefore, the algebraic expression for the given phrase is


(x)/(2)+7
