Translate the following verbal statement into an algebraic equation and then solve:
Use for your variable
The sum of two times a number and five is eight more than the number.
Equation= X=

2 times x + 5 = 8 + x

Step-by-step explanation:

sum means what x is

times is multiplication

more is addition

there are many solutions.

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

4x+6=4x^2+10x−4

step 2: subtract 4x^2+10x-4 from both sides.

4x+6−(4x^2+10x−4)=4x^2+10x−4−(4x^2+10x−4)

−4x^2−6x+10=0

step 3: factor left side of equation.

−2(2x+5)(x−1)=0

step 4: set factors equal to 0.

x=-5/2 or x=1

the answer to this is:

factor 2x2+16x+24

2x2+16x+24

=2(x+2)(x+6)

answer:

2(x+2)(x+6)

hope this hmu if needed
