Answer 1

Answer:

A) $2x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of calculator made by Adnan in this week = $'x'$

We need to write an algebraic expression for the number of calculators that Maya made this week.

Solution:

Now given:

Maya made twice as many calculators.

So we can say that;

Number of calculators made by Maya this week is equal to 2 times Number of calculator made by Adnan this week.

framing in equation form we get;

Number of calculators made by Maya this week = $2\times x = 2x$

Hence an algebraic expression for the number of calculators that Maya made this week is $2x$.
