Hey there!
[tex] Twice: 2 \\ Number: x \\ plus: + \\ is: = (equal) \\ twelve: 12 \\ So, 2x + 6 = 12 (answer) [/tex]
It can't be:
• [tex] \frac{1}{2} x + 6 = 12 [/tex] because, its not asking half of a number plus six is twelve
• [tex] 2x -6 = 12 [/tex] because its not asking twice a number minus six is twelve
• [tex] 3x + 6 = 12 [/tex] because its not asking three times a number plus 6 is twelve
(So, [tex] A,B,D [/tex] would most likely be incorrect since they aren't doing anything with the representation!)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
◦ But the answer is: [tex] 2x + 6 = 12 (B) [/tex] because it is stating what is representing in this equation sentence!
Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
