A b+6=22
B. 22 - b = 6
C. 22 = 6 + b
D. b - 6 = 22​

Answer 1

Answer:

The ones that can be used are (B and A)

The ones that cannot be used are (C and D)

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the panthers got 6 less and the tigers got 22…

b+6 would make 22 (panthers plus 6 makes tigers)

22-b would also be 6 because 6+b makes 22, so subtracting b from 22 makes 6
