I will put an equation to the corresponding number.

1) Seven more than 2 times a number is 23 => 2n + 7 = 23
2) The difference of 2 times a number and 7 is 23 => 2n - 7 = 23
3) The sum of 7 times a number and 2 is 23 => 7n + 2 = 23
4) Seven less than 2 times a number is 23 => 2n - 7 = 23

Based on the choices. The equation that matches sentences 2 & 4 is letter b. 2n - 7 = 23

Though both sentences are structured differently and used different terms, they both refer to subtraction of 7 from the product of 2 and n to get the difference of 23.

Answer: 19 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, since the situation forms a right triangle (see attachment) we have to apply the next trigonometric function.

Tan α = opposite side / adjacent side

Where α is the angle of depression of the dog, the opposite side (16) is Ted's eye level above the ground, and the adjacent side (x) is the distance between the dog and the barn door.

Replacing with the values given:

tan40 = 16/x

Solving for x

x =16/tan40

x= 19 ft
