Chapter EP, Problem 1.3.4EP

To determine

To write: The algebraic expression to represent the given verbal expression.

Answer to Problem 1.3.4EP

The algebraic representation of the given verbal expression is ${\left(x+11\right)}^2$ .

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The given verbal expression is “the square of the sum of a number and 11.”

Calculation:

To represent the given verbal expression “the square of the sum of a number and 11”, in algebraic expression, first consider a number $x$ .

In the next step, take the sum of the number $x$ and 11 to get $x+11$ .

Now, take square of sum of the number and 11 to get the final expression ${\left(x+11\right)}^2$ .

Therefore, the algebraic representation of the given verbal expression is ${\left(x+11\right)}^2$ .
