Answer 2

Answer:

A) 12+2x=48

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by breaking down the language used here.  

12 more than twice a number.

 

In math, more than indicates addition.  

"Twice a number" means 2 times a certain number, which we will symbolize using 'x'.

So now we have:  

12+2x, which in this case, equals 48.
