Write any algebraic expression with at least two operations and the word phrase it represents

Two consecutive numbers that are odd such that three times the first is 5 more than twice the second.

Solution. Let the first odd number be 2n + 1.

Then, the next one is 2n + 3 -- because it will be 2 more.

The problem says, that is, the equation is:

That implies:

hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:

the domain is the set { -2, 0, 2, 3}

discussion:

the domain is the set of x values in the ordered pairs (x,y). taking the x, or first component, of each ordered pair gives   -2, 0, 2, 3.
