Stop dealing in answers-without-work, please. The goal here is for @jasutton04 to learn how to do these problems himself. Do NOT hand out answers without first having involved jasutton04 in discussion of how to do this translation.

are you a qualified teacher (mathmale)???????

Answer 18

Ya jeez you kinda sound crappy. But what do you think @jasutton04

A.
8 – d

B.
d – 8

C.
d + 8

D.
8d

Answer 26

this is my last one

Answer 27

What do you think would make sense for working 8 hours for so many days?

Answer 28

8d?

Answer 29

i believe it should be d. because you would need to multiply how many hours they've worked so it should be d.

Answer 30

Please discuss each answer choice and the reasons why each may be appropriate or not appropriate. sutton's "because if the expression is 16-y then it has to be that maria is y years younger than jeff" is much more helpful than "it's b, it's not c," etc.

Answer 31

mathmale are you one of those qualified peaple

Answer 32

"What do you think would make sense for working 8 hours for so many days?" Now that's a good question. Keep it up.

jasutton: I'm not a qualified helper in the sense that it's defined here on OpenStudy, but I am a moderator with 40+ years of formal teaching experience.
