QuestionIdentify the equation for: Four more than a number is half the number. Options: n+4=n2n+4=\frac{n}{2}, n24=n\frac{n}{2}-4=n, n4=n2n-4=\frac{n}{2}, 4+n=n24+n=\frac{n}{2}.

Studdy Solution
Let's compare this equation with the options given.
Option1 n+4=n2n+4=\frac{n}{2} - This is the equation we derived.
Option2 n24=n\frac{n}{2}-4=n - This equation represents "Half the number minus four is the number", which is not the same as the original sentence.
Option3 n4=n2n-4=\frac{n}{2} - This equation represents "Four less than a number is half the number", which is not the same as the original sentence.
Option4 4+n=n24+n=\frac{n}{2} - This equation is the same as the first option, just written in a different order.
So, the equations that represent the sentence "Four more than a number is half the number" are n+4=n2n +4 = \frac{n}{2} and 4+n=n24 + n = \frac{n}{2}.
