hello anyone there

mertsj · Answer

8 less than a number is x-8
6 more than a number is x+6
Do you understand that much?

anonymous · Answer

ya thx

mertsj · Answer

So choice A says x-8 divided by x+6
Is choice A correct?

anonymous · Answer

Actually @Mertsj choice A is not the answer,  we have x + 6 divided by x - 8
top is ALWAYS divided by the bottom.

mertsj · Answer

Of course choice A is incorrect.  Why don't you let the asker figure that out instead of posting it?
