Two more than the product of 12 and Chrissy's age.

Question

Translate this phrase into an algebraic expression.

Use the variable c to represent Chrissy's age.

Answer 1

Hi Odynn,

Saying "Two more than" translates to "add two"

Saying "the product of Chrissy's age" translates to "multiply by Chrissy's age"

We can put this together as: (12)(Chrissy's age) + 2. Since we are told to use c to represent Chrissy's age, we have our answer: (12)(c)+12

Sincerely,
