After Nancy deposits her birthday gift of $20.00 into her savings account, her balance is $225.50.
Which equation can be used to find the amount, n, in her account before she made the deposit?
A.
20.00 – n = 225.50
B.
n + 225.50 = 20.00
C.
n – 225.50 = 20.00
D.
20.00 + n = 225.50
OpenStudy (anonymous):
What do ya think
OpenStudy (anonymous):
IM GOING WITH D. BECAUSE SHE HAD $225.50 SHE DEPOSIT $20.00 SO IT WOULD BE 20.00 + n = 225.50

@ganeshie8 can you close the question?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
When it says 5n+8 the + signs is read as "more than" so if I know correctly, you have to say the equation backwards, if it says 8 more than 5n, it is 5n+8 but if it is 5n less than 8 then it is 8-5n, get it? its not a joke.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@Lovelarap you should be a little nicer.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
sorry....
