6. Example 1: Twice a number, increased by 5, equals -25. Use n to represent the number. 2n + 5 = -25 Translate each sentence into an equation.

7. Example 2: Four times a number minus 8 equals 28. Use n to represent the number. 4n – 8 = 28 Translate each sentence into an equation.

8. Example 3: When five is added to the product of a number and 8, the result is 12. Use n to represent the number. 5 + 8n = 12 Translate each sentence into an equation.

9. Example 4: Nine more than four times a number is 41. Find the number. Use n to represent the number. 9 + 4n = 41 Translate each sentence into an equation. Then solve.

10. 9 + 4n = 41 -9 4n = 32 44 n = 8

11. Example 5: The product of 6 and a number, less 7, equals 11. Use n to represent the number. 6n – 7 = 11 Translate each sentence into an equation. Then solve. 6n = 18n = 3

12. Example 6: When four is added to a number that has been divided by 3, the result is 1. Use n to represent the number. Translate each sentence into an equation. Then solve.

13. Example 7: Four less than 8 times a number is 12. Use n to represent the number. 8n – 4 = 12 Translate each sentence into an equation. Then solve. 8n = 16n = 2

14. Example 8: Ms. Blake earns $48,400 per year. That is $4,150 more than three times as much as her daughter earns. How much does her daughter earn? Use d to represent what the daughter earns.

15. 48,400 = 4,150 + 3d 44,250 = 3d 14,750 =d Daughter earns $14,750 d represents daughter

16. Example 9: In a canned food drive, Sam collected 12 more cans than Lisa. Together, they collected 128 cans. How many cans did Sam collect? Use c to represent cans Lisa collected.

17. c + 12 represents Sam c + (c + 12) = 128 (c + c) + 12 = 128 2c + 12 = 128 c represents Lisa

18. 2c = 116 c = 58 Lisa collected 58 Sam collected 70 2c + 12 = 128
