Translate the following into an algebraic expression: the sum of a number and five, added to the difference between the same number and three

It simplifies to 2x + 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x, then the expression is

x + 5 + (x - 3)

= x + 5 + x - 3

= x + x + 5 - 3

= 2x + 2.

$25

step-by-step explanation:

25 - 4.50 = 20.5

20.5 / 2 = 10.25

10.25 + 10 = 20.25

20.25 - 12.50 = 7.75

therefore the answer is $25 as shown as the first number.

1/3

step-by-step explanation:

to find this, you can divide 12 by 4 which is 3 or you can multiply 4 until you reach 12 (4x3=12). both should give you 3, meaning theres three times less bananas than there are oranges.
