Six more then the product of seven and a number is 55 which equation and solution correctly represent this sentence

The equation is 6 + 7x = 55 and the solution x=7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Six more than the product of seven and a number. Let x be the number unknown, this sentence can be represented as:

6 + 7x

The result should be 55. The whole equation should be:

6 + 7x = 55.

We need to solve for x. First, we can move 6 number from one side to the other. Second, we can do the difference between 55 and 6. Third, we must divide 49 by 7. Finally, the answer to this problem is 7.

7x = 55 - 6

7x = 49

x = 49/7

x = 7.

The equation is 6 + 7x = 55 and the solution x=7.
