Question

Which algebraic expression represents the phrase “ the quotient of negative right and the sum of a number and three”?

Answer 1

-8 ÷ (x + 3)

Explanation:

So quotient means that you're dividing, so put a ÷

Next, it says the dividend, or the part being divided is -8, so now you have this: -8 ÷

Lastly, it says the divisor, or the part doing the dividing, is a quantity equal to the sum of "some number" (we'll use x) and 3. Since the divisor is one quantity collectively, you have to put it in parentheses.

This gives you: (x + 3)

When you put it all together, you get -8 ÷ (x + 3).

This can also be written as a fraction: -8/x+3.
