Question

TRANSLATING SENTENCES INTO EQUATIONS PLEASE HELP

Two more than the quotient of a number and 5 equals 7.
Use the variable x for the unknown number.

Answer 1

2+ (x/5) = 7

You can also write it as (x/5) + 2 = 7

Explanation:

x/5 just means x divided by 5. (Quotient is the answer to a division problem!)

Two more than means plus 2 because you are adding 2 more.

:)

:D

Answer 2

`(x)/(5)` + 2 = 7

Explanation:

The quotient of x and 5 is
`(x)/(5)` and 2 more is
`(x)/(5)` + 2 , then

`(x)/(5)` + 2 = 7
