which shows the phase the product of a number and 3 as a variable expression
Product is the name of th answer in multiplication. >> the product of a number and 3 as a variable expression If x represents the mystery number, then multiple it by 3 to get ?
You may need to post the options.
If x is the variable and you multiply by 3, what is the result?
n + 3 n - 3 3n + 3 3n
those are the choices ^
Okay. n is the variable. Multiply 3 by n to get the answer. The answer is the product of 3 and n.
Nothing has been added or subtracted so you can eliminate those options. That leaves one remaining option. What is it?
ok but what is n ?
We don't know what n is. It is called a variable because it varies and can be just about any number.
3 times 5 = 15 but 3 times n cannot be "simplified" in that way because we do not know the value of n.
If you had to choose an answer now, what would you choose? Be Brave.
i would go with C i think
3n + 3 is not correct because the phrase said three times a number n. Nothing was said about adding 3.
The answer is the product of 3 and n. It is 3n which is the last option.
ah ok
I know it seems that there should have been more to the problem but not this time. :)
