Answer :
Let's match each meaning to its corresponding expression step-by-step.
1. [tex]$x$[/tex] added to the sum of five and seven:
Expression: [tex]\( x + (5 + 7) \)[/tex]
- This represents adding [tex]$x$[/tex] to the sum [tex]$5 + 7$[/tex]. The correct match is: [tex]\( x+(5+7) \)[/tex].

Expression: [tex]\( x - (8 + 2) \)[/tex]
- This represents subtracting the sum [tex]$8 + 2$[/tex] from [tex]$x$[/tex]. The correct match is: [tex]\( x-(8+2) \)[/tex].
3. Eight added to [tex]$x$[/tex]:
Expression: [tex]\( x + 8 \)[/tex]
- This represents adding 8 to [tex]$x$[/tex]. The correct match is: [tex]\( x+8 \)[/tex].
4. Eight subtracted from [tex]$x$[/tex]:
Expression: [tex]\( x - 8 \)[/tex]
- This represents subtracting 8 from [tex]$x$[/tex]. The correct match is: [tex]\( x-8 \)[/tex].
5. Eight minus [tex]$x$[/tex]:
Expression: [tex]\( 8 - x \)[/tex]
- This represents subtracting [tex]$x$[/tex] from 8. The correct match is: [tex]\( 8-x \)[/tex].
6. Five subtracted from [tex]$n$[/tex]:
Expression: [tex]\( n - 5 \)[/tex]
- This represents subtracting 5 from [tex]$n$[/tex]. The correct match is: [tex]\( n-5 \)[/tex].
7. The sum of [tex]$x$[/tex] and itself:
Expression: [tex]\( x + x \)[/tex]
- This represents adding [tex]$x$[/tex] to itself. The correct match is: [tex]\( x+x \)[/tex].
8. The difference of eight and two, added to [tex]$x$[/tex]:
Expression: [tex]\( x + (8 - 2) \)[/tex]
- This represents adding the difference of 8 and 2 to [tex]$x$[/tex]. The correct match is: [tex]\( x+(8-2) \)[/tex].
9. The sum of [tex]$n$[/tex] and five:
Expression: [tex]\( n + 5 \)[/tex]
- This represents adding 5 to [tex]$n$[/tex]. The correct match is: [tex]\( n+5 \)[/tex].
10. Five minus [tex]$n$[/tex]:
Expression: [tex]\( 5 - n \)[/tex]
- This represents subtracting [tex]$n$[/tex] from 5. The correct match is: [tex]\( 5-n \)[/tex].
