x-7=485267532564256732

Answer 2

Explanation:

We have to write an equation to represent the relationship "a number decreased by negative 7 is the same thing as 48

Let the unknown number be x.

A number decreased by 7 =
`x-7`

Since this equals 48, algebraic equation would be

`x-7=48`

Note: We can solve this by adding 7 to both sides to get x=55
