Answer:

The answer is 2j -5 = 230.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because of what the question is asking. When it says that 5 decreased from DOUBLE Joe's weight is 230 it means that the equation will result in 230. To find the equation we know we need DOUBLE Joe's weight and so it is 2j. It also says 5 decreased from double Joe's weight so we need to take away five. This is how we get to 2j - 5 = 230.

Answer:

a) Joe's weight is: 117.5

b) 2j-5=230

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You know that 5 is decreased from double Joe’s weight and the result is 230. Then, if j represents Joe’s weight you can write the following expression:

 2j-5=230

2. To know Joe’s weight you must solve for j. Then, you obtain the result show below:

2j=230+5\\2j=235\\j=\frac{235}{2}\\j=117.5

Answer:

6+(-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

6 is positive but we are subtracting 2. Therefore, the expression is 6 plus -2. It is negative because that is what we are taking away. The plus sign does not mean anything because there is a negative number. When you look at it, you immediately read 6 plus -2 and since it is a negative not a positive then it's subtracting not adding.
