Solution:
Given that we have to write a algebraic expression
An algebraic expression is a mathematical expression that consists of variables, numbers and operations.
Given statement is:
Sum of 17 and a number
Let the number be "x"
Then we can say, sum of 17 and x
Here, sum refers to addition. So we have to add 17 and x
This can be written mathematically as,
[tex]sum\ of\ 17\ and\ x = 17 + x[/tex]
Thus the algebraic expression is 17 + x
