Answer 1

Answer:

See explanation below

Step-by-step explanation:

We are going to transform the given phrase to an equivalent algebraic expression, let's x be a number:

a) The product of -12 and a number (we have to multiply)

(-12)x = -12x

b) The quotient of -12 and a number (quotient means division)

$\frac{-12}{x}$

c) Twice the sum of -12 and a number (we're going to sum up -12 and a number and then multiply by 2)

2(-12 + x)

d) The sum of -12 and twice a number (we're going to sum up -12 and the double of the number)

-12 + 2x
