Question

Which expression below is the correct representation of "the product of 4 and a
number, increased by 6, is 9 less than twice the number" if n represents the
variable?
A. 4n + 6 = 9 - 2n
B. 4(n + 6) = 9 - 2n
C. 4n + 6 = 2n - 9
D. 4(n + 6) = 2n - 9

Answer 1

I believe it is C; 4n + 6 = 2n - 9

the product of 4 and a number
> 4n

increased by 6
> 4n + 6

is 9 less than twice a number
> 4n + 6 = 2n - 9
