Answer 2

The expression which is used to represents the total number of stamps that Rose has is:

`(1)/(2)x-7`

Explanation:

The number of stamp that Van has is: x

Now, it is given that:

Rose's stamp collection is 7 less than half of Van's stamp collection.

Half of Van's collection is: (1/2)x

and 7 less than this number is:

(1/2)x-7

Hence, the number of stamp with Rose is:

`(1)/(2)x-7`
