Answer 1

Answer

Word phrase :  "seven times the difference of 1 and m"

Algebraic expression : 7(1-m)

Explanation

we have to translate word phrase to algebraic expression.

We can solve this step by step

Word phrase :  "seven times the difference of 1 and m"

Step 1

Take the phrase

    " the difference of 1 and m"

The difference of 1 and m  can be written as (1 - m)

Step 2

seven times of a number can be written as 7 x number  

Here x = 1 - m  

Step 3

Combine two phrases, we get

Algebraic expression : 7(1-m)

Answer 2

Answer:

7(1 - m)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a word 'seven times the difference of 1 and m' and we are to change it to an algebraic expression.

So we will split the above word phrase to make it easier to change it to algebraic expression.

Taking the later part: difference of 1 and m

It can be written as (1 - m)

and the earlier part: seven times the difference

which means the difference is to be multiplied by 7

So combining these, we get the algebraic expression:

7(1 - m)
