Question #5883f Algebra Expressions, Equations, and Functions Variable Expressions 1 Answer Patrick H. Nov 13, 2016 c=-7 Explanation: 10 more than a number c would be the same as c+10. Since this would be equal to 3, we can create an expression, which is c+10=3. From here, we solve for x. We'll subtract 10 form each side to get our answer, c=-7: c+10-10=3-10 c=-7 Answer link Related questions How do you write the variable expression for: a quotient of 2 and the sum of a number and 3 ?
