Question

_______________ 6) eleven times the sum of twelve and five times x
_______________ 9) the product of eight and x increased by fifteen
_______________ 10) four less than the quotient of t and seven

Answer 1

I will do one of them, you do the other two and let us know what you got

9)the product of eight and x increased by fifteen
product ---- the answer to a multiplication
multiplication of what?? }..of eight and x... , so 8x
increased --- means something was added
what was added ? "increased by fifteen" ---- +15

8x + 15

Answer 2

6) 11x+12 (I honestly don't know the rest to this problem. The five times x confuses me)

10) t/7-4

Answer 3

eleven times the sum of twelve and five times x
11(the sum of twelve and five times x)
11(12 + 5x)

What about the last one?
What is a "quotient" ?

Answer 4

A quotient is the answer to a division problem

Answer 5

so
t/7 - 4
or to be absolutely clear about it
(t/7) - 4
