Step-by-step explanation:

The correct question is

Translate the sentence into an equation using n as the unknown number. Then solve the equation for n.

5 increased by half a number is 11

Let

n ----> the unknown number

we know that

The linear equation that represent this situation is

[tex]5+\frac{n}{2}=11[/tex]

solve for n

Multiply by 2 both sides

[tex]10+n=22[/tex]

subtract 10 both sides

[tex]n=22-10[/tex]

[tex]n=12[/tex]
