Translate to the correct equation: The sum of 24 and three times a number is 57 * Translate into an inequality: Six less than double a number is less than 18.

EQUATION:  24 + 3X = 27. INEQUALITY: 2X - 6 < 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the equation:

"A number" means that we do not know what the number is yet. So it is a variable. I chose the variable, "X."

"The SUM of 24 AND" means we are adding 24 to something. So what we have so far is "24 + ..."

"3 times a number" means we are multiplying 3 by the unknown variable X. So 3X. What we have so far is "24 + 3X..."

"is 57" means that everything we've just stated equals 57.

Our entire equation is: 24 + 3x = 27.

For the inequality:

Inequalities mean that two expressions are NOT equal to each other.

"6 less than" means that we subtract 6. So we have,"6 - ..." so far.

"Double a number" means 2 times a number, which we are saying is X. So "2X."

" is less than 18" means that everything we just said is less than the value of 18.

So the whole inequality is: 2X - 6 < 18.

what are the statements? and what do you mean by "216 2 1 6"?
