Translate the word phrase into a variable expression. The product of 6 and a number is increased by 2. A. 6 + n + 2 B. 6n + 2 C. 2n + 6 D. n/6+ 2 I think its 6n + 2!

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

hint: the product between 6 and a number N, is: \(6 N\)

OpenStudy (biue):

Im not good with math, I need some help. Can you explain?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

if we have two numbers, for example \(2\) and \(98\), then their product is: \(2 \cdot 98\) Now I make a little generalization, and I say that the product between \(2\) and a generic number \(n\), is \(2 \cdot N\)

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

oops.. I meant a generic number \(N\)...

OpenStudy (biue):

So 2 x 98?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

then, I have to add \(+2\) to the result, so I think you are right! of course the product is between \(6\) and \(N\)

OpenStudy (biue):

So my answer is 6 + n + 2? or n/6 +2 ?
