(A) b−a=10 a=3b+4 (B) a−b=10 b=3a+4 (C) a b =10 a=3b+4 (D) a−b=10 a=3b+4 (E) b−a=10 3b=a+4
helpppp meeeeeee brainlest answer ever

Answer 1

Answer:

D. a−b=10 a=3b+4

Step-by-step explanation:

Difference between a and b means to subtract b from a

We have,

a-b=10

a is 4 more than 3 times b

4 more than means to add 4

3 times b means to multiply b by 3

Therefore, a=3 times b + 4

a=3b+4

a - b=10; a=3b+4
