Answer:
$18.15
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to find the difference between the two values
what we do here simply is to subtract the second from the first
Mathematically we have this as;
36-17.85 = $18.15
You are told to choose the choices equal to T(8). T(8) means that you need to find the possible ways to write the y-value when n = 8, since 8 is being substituted in for "n."
1) First, plug in n = 8 into the equation you're given, <span>T(n) = 4n - 5:
T(8) = 4(8) - 5
T(8) = 32 - 5
T(8) = 27
That is answer choice C, making choice C correct. You can eliminate choice B, since 27 </span>≠ 37.
2) Check answer choice A. Is T(5) + T(3) = 27? T(5) means you need to plug in 5 for n. T(3) means you need to plug in 3 for n.
T(5) + T(3)
= [4(5) - 5] + [4(3) - 5]
= [20-5] + [12-5]
= 15 + 7
= 22
Since 22 ≠ 27, you can eliminate choice A.
3) Check answer choice D. Is T(7) + 4 = 27? T(7) means you need to plug in 7 for n.
T(7) + 4
= [<span>4(7) - 5] + 4
</span>= [28 - 5] + 4
= 23 + 4
= 27
Since 27 = 27, answer choice D is also correct!

Answer: Choice C (27) and Choice D (T(7) + 4)
The term is used as means of asking students to write down equations using simple mathematical symbols (numerals, the four basic mathematical operators, equality symbol)[5]. Sometimes boxes or shapes are used to indicate unknown values. As such number sentences are used to introduce students to notions of structure and algebra prior to a more formal treatment of these concepts.
A number sentence without unknowns is equivalent to a logical proposition expressed using the notation of arithmetic.
[edit] Examples
A valid number sentence that is true: 3 + 7 = 10.
A valid number sentence that is false: 7 + 9 = 17.
A valid number sentence using a 'less than' symbol: 3 + 6 < 10.
An example from a lesson plan:
Some students will use a direct computational approach. They will carry out the addition 26 + 39 = 65, put 65 = 23 + □, and then find that □ = 42.[6] (wikipedia)
