Question

The sum of twice a number and eight is eleven.

Question 4 options:


2x+8=11



2x−8=11



2(x−8)=11



2(x+8)=11

Answer 1

2x+8=11

Explanation:

The equation 2x + 8 = 11 would be the answer.

2 (coefficient) ----> it would multiply by the unknown value represented by the common variable "x".

Because in the given situation, it says twice (means 2 multiplied by a number or a number multiplied twice by itself) then multiplication would be the order of operation used between the 2 and x.

The "and" indicates the order of operation addition, as it is proven as the only given options for the answer all equal 11.

Therefore, proving that option A is the answer.
