Answer:

19 + c = 4

Explanation:

Given:

  • 19 more than the number c is 4

We know that:

  • The word "more" means addition between two numbers.
  • The word "is" means two terms or two expressions are equivalent.

Therefore, we can make the following replacements:

  • "19" ⇒ "19"
  • "more" ⇒ "+"
  • "c" ⇒ "c"
  • "is" ⇒ "="
  • "4" ⇒ "4"

When we replace the bolded text in the statement, we get;

⇒ 19 more than the number c is 4

⇒ 19 more than the number c is 4 ["19" ⇒ "19"]

⇒ 19 + than the number c is 4 ["more" ⇒ "+"]

⇒ 19 + c is 4 ["than the number c" ⇒ "c"]

⇒ 19 + c = 4 ["is" ⇒ "="]

⇒ 19 + c = 4 ["4" ⇒ "4"]

Thus, the expression/equation that represents the statement is
\small\text{19 + c = 4.}

◆ First, the word "more" indicates that we add.

Here we have 19 more than c, so we add c plus 19, which looks as follows:-

✳︎
\sf{19+c}

This expression is equal to 4:-

✳︎
\sf{19+c=4}

If you also need to find c, subtract 19 on both sides:-

  • c=-15

So we conclude that the value of c is -15.

Good luck with your studies.
