Question

Felica starts with y coins in her collection. She loses 20 coins, taking her collection to 28. Choose the equation that correctly represents this scenario.

Answer 1

Answer:

The equation representing the scenario is $y-20=28$.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of coins in Felica collections in start = $y \ coins$

Number of coins she looses = $20\ coins.$

Number of coins left in the collection after loosing = $28 \ coins$

We need to write the equations representing the scenario.

Solution:

Now we can say that;

Number of coins in Felica collections in start minus Number of coins she looses is equal to Number of coins left in the collection after loosing.

framing in equation form we get;

$y-20=28$

Hence The equation representing the scenario is $y-20=28$.
