is "7 increased by x" 7 + x or x + 7? which would be the more proper way?

OpenStudy (isaiah.feynman):

Both is the proper way. a+b=b+a

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If I had to choose one (since both are correct), I'd go with 7+x because it more closely matches the verbal statement.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes it is 7 + x.
