  2. After he bought the cars and sold the motorcycles, he had 4x+4 cars to x-4 motorcycles
  3. Since after this selling/buying, he has 8 times more cars than motorcycles, you can write the equation 4x+4=8(x-4)

Which of the following is a correct interpretation of the expression 2 + 7?
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

(D). The number that is 7 to the right of 2 on the number line​

Step-by-step explanation:

It could also be the number that is 2 to the right of 7 on the number line. When numbers are added, the distances of each to the origin are laid end-to-end from the origin to the right on the number line.

2+7 can mean that the distance 2 is added to the distance 7, or vice versa. (The commutative property of addition says order does not matter.)

Maggie's brother is 6 years younger than four times her age. The sum of their ages is 39. How old is Maggie?
poizon [28]

We can set Maggie's age to x

If her brother is six years younger than four times her age, than her brother must be equal to: 4x-6

Since the sum of their ages is 39, we can set up an equation.

(Sum of Maggie's age) + (sum of Maggie's brother's age) = 39

x + (4x -6) = 39

5x -6 = 39

5x = 45

x = 9 , Maggie's age is 9
