Question

Amanda needs to cut a board to use for a project. The board is 10 feet long. She first has to cut off 1 3/4 feet from one end of the board. She then cuts the remaining section of board into 4 equal pieces.
1 3/4x−4=10

1 3/4x+4=10

4x−1 3/4=10

4x+1 3/4=10

Answer 1

4x+1 3/4=10 because the 1 3/4 doesn’t have an x since it is not a variable but rather a constant.
