Question

Emma wrote the expression 2(3w-6) to represent the amount of money that Juan spent.Is she correct?Explain

Answer 1

No you have to distribute soot would be 6w-12 i think

Answer 2

Total money earned by Juan = 3w-6

Now Juan saved 1/3 of the money.

So money Juan spent will be 2/3 of what he earned.

Money Juan spent :

$\frac{2}{3} (3w-6)$

Simplifying we get :

2w-4

Emma wrote the expression as 2(3w-6) which is not equal to 2w-4.

So we can say that the expression found by Emma was incorrect .
