Question

Write the algebraic expression that represents the following: The difference of thirteen and a number

Answer 1

$\Large\texttt{Answer}$

$\bold{n-13}$

$\overline{\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad}$

$\Large\texttt{Process}$

⇨ Again letting n be the number

$\bold{n}$

⇨ Subtract 13 from n

$\bold{n-13}$

*unlike addition, the order DOES matter, because

$\bold{n-13\ne 13-n}$

Hope that helped
