Variable g is 8 more than variable w. Variable g is also 4 less than w. Which pair of equations best models the relationship between g and w?

A. g= w – 8
g = w + 4
B. w = 8g
w = g – 4
C. g= w + 8
g = w – 4
D. w = 8g
w = g + 4

Question

Variable g is 8 more than variable w. Variable g is also 4 less than w. Which pair of equations best models the relationship between g and w?

A. g= w – 8
            g = w + 4
	B. w = 8g
           w = g – 4
	C. g= w + 8
             g = w – 4
	D. w = 8g
            w = g + 4

anonymous · Answer

it would be c. 
If g is worth 8 more than w, then that could be written as g=w+8,
If g is worth 4 less than w, that could be written as g=w-4
