The phrase will be translated into an algebraic expression as [tex]4(8 - x)[/tex]

  • An algebraic expression is a combination of numbers (constants), letters (variables) and operation signs (addition, subtraction, division, or multiplication), which represents a given statement.

  • We can translate the statement/phrase given as follows:

Let the unknown number be represented as [tex]x[/tex]

Difference of eight and [tex]x[/tex] will be translated as [tex](8 - x)[/tex]

  • Therefore,

four times [tex](8 - x)[/tex] would be written as:

[tex]4(8 - x)[/tex]

  • The phrase "four times the difference of eight and a number" can therefore be expressed algebraically as [tex]4(8 - x)[/tex]
