A. Well she starts with 24 buns. She ate 1/2 half of a bun leaving 23 1/2 buns left. Then she gave her mother and father a bun each so you do 23 1/2 - 2 which gets you 21 1/2 buns. So the total number of buns that she has left is 21 and 1/2 buns.
Answer:
This question was worded weirdly however I am assuming this is algebra and you need the equation. So here- -2(q-3) or -2q+6
Step-by-step explanation:
Distribute the -2, to all the terms in the parenthesis of -2(q-3) you get 2q+6
If you didnt know how to get -2(q-3), -2(multiplied) by q-3, you use parenthesis to make sure you know it is multiplication in front of the parenthesis.
Hope I could help!
Step-by-step explanation:

or equivalently

We often write variable side-byside without the multiplication sign in algebra. It also applies to terms with indices. For instance,

We may, often also add a dot at the middle of both terms as another version of multiplication sign for better readability if the terms are more complicated, for instance

and

Input the information we already know:

Find A common denominator.

Simplify.



Reduce to Lowest Terms.

or
1 9/10 miles of fencing will be required to enclose the entire lot.
Hope this helps.
