Question

The correct expression for a number which is 9 times as big as the number obtained after p has been increased
by 4

Answer 1

Answer:

9(p + 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the unknown variable is p.

First of all, we know that the number is 9 times as big (multiplication) as the new number obtained through the addition of four to p i.e (p + 4).

Translating the word problem into an algebraic expression, we have;

9 * (p + 4) = 9(p + 4)

Simplifying further, we have;

9p + 36
