1. Write an algebraic expression. Two times the difference of t and 11

2. Write the given equation. Use x for variable.

The product of a number and negative two is twelve.

The best way to solve these types of problems is to get better at reading algebraic expressions that are transcribed in English and translating them to actual expressions/equations.

When I hear "Two times the difference of t and 11" I immediately think the subtraction comes first then the multiplication because of word "the" after "Two times".

Answer for the first question:

2 * (t - 11)

"The product of a number and negative two" in the second question instantly shows one piece of the solution:

x * -2

It continues with, "is twelve". The word "is" is synonymous with "equals"

Full solution:

x * -2 = 12

450 is the final answer! : )
