By distributive property, 8 x (14 + 7) = (8 x 14) + (8 x 7)
(37.9 + 12.4) + 8.16 i think, i could be wrong though.
Hey!
Your answers are:
- 4 less than a number
- A number decreased by 4
Let k represent "a number". "k" is a variable, and variables are unknown.
-4 is subtracting 4. That means you're subtracting 4 from a number. -4 also means that the number is decreasing by 4. Therefore, those 2 are your answers.
<em>I hope this helps!</em>
