dybincka [34]

Answer:

2x + 4 = 10 = x =3

Step-by-step explanation:

09 - 31 = 0  (the variable x is not present in the given system)

GREYUIT [131]

Answer: C. She is dividing the entire length into shorter lengths.

The rest of the question would be "How many pieces will she get?"

Step-by-step explanation:

A would be a subtraction problem UNLESS it goes on to ask "how many 1/3 yard pieces can she cut?"

It's a subtraction problem if it's about "how many yards are left?"

B is just backwards and makes no sense with the expression given.
