Question

A.8(x+11)+23
B. 8x - 23 -11
C. 8(x-11) +23
D. 23 + 8x - 11

plz help

Answer 1

Difference = x - 11
8 times difference = 8 (x - 11)

Answer is:-
8 (x - 11) + 23

Answer 2

if you cut the sentence into pieces like so:

twenty three more than 23 +
eight times 8 *
the difference of the number,x, and eleven x-11

it makes it easier to visualize.
when you see the word more than means to add(+)
times means to multiply(*)
difference means to subtract(-)

Now when it says eight times the (----whatever------)
you multiply the 8 with parenthesis on the whatever.
whatever being the (x-11)
So: 8(x-11)

Now the twenty three more than 23+ could have been put in front or in back depending on the answer choices given.
but since you were given 23 more than you simply place the 23 in the back of everything else.

8(x-11)+23

If you would have gotten twenty three added to (whatever).
then the answer would have been 23 + 8(x-11).
which is almost the same thing because of the
Communative Property.

Answer 3

C.
twenty three more means + 23
eight times the difference of the number, x and eleven means 8 (x-11)

so its 8(x-11) +23

Answer 4

C. 8(x-11)+23

twenty three more is +23
eight times is 8(......
difference of the number x and 11 is (x-11)

Answer 5

23 + 8(x -- 11) is C

Answer 6

It's C.8(x-11)+23. Promise. I'm a math teacher.

Answer 7

Answer 8

C:
23 more means to add 23. The difference means subtract: x-11. And the 8 is multiplied by this difference.
