Paul has sockets and wrenches in his toolbox. The number of wrenches is eleven more than five times the number of sockets. Let [tex]s[/tex] represent the number of sockets. Write an expression for the number of wrenches.

Answer :

An expression for the number of wrenches in terms of the number of sockets is 5s + 11.

An expression is a combination of variables with numbers, values, and constants without the equals sign (=).

An expression is depicted using the mathematical operands, especially, addition, multiplication, subtraction, and division, etc.

Let the number of sockets = s

The number of wrenches = 5s + 11.

Thus, the correct expression for the number of wrenches is 5s + 11.
