Help please, I will give medal! (Attached problem)
@chris00 Help please?
Difference is subtraction. Which one shows subtraction?
I'd say B. Difference means subtraction, as you may know, and x (being the number that 2 is taken away from) would come first... Not 2x or any + signs.
yes x-6 because - is showing difference and every sign has a different term i will post one sec
lets re-phrase this question. what would the difference between 5 and 2 be? that is simply another way of saying 5-2
would be 3 right?
what about 4-2?
no because you just trying to find 2 not 2x Ps that wouldn't work because x could equal anything
see what i am doing. I'm just changing the first term to be any number i want but i always subtract two from it. so lets call this any old number a variable which signifies any number you want, say 'x' all we do is substitute x into the first term and it becomes x-2
The answer is x-2..?
Its B because you can eliminate A and C because there addition and difference is referred to as subtraction and D would not work because you trying to find 2 not 2x and in this equation x could equal anything
and yes
Ok. Next tone is..
2n+3
twice the number which the term n=number and twice would be 2n sum=+ and 3=3
Is it 2(n+3) or 2n+3...??
x+5 and ask if u want me to explain
for the last its 2n+3
no parenthesis because that means you have to distribute to both numbers not 1
Oh. okay.
D
last one..
@Sohal you there?
yes I'm thinking give me a sec
Alright. :)
its A
The last one was Incorrect... But thank you for the help!
