Answer 1

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

1. b decreased by c squared

`c^2-b`

2. 24 divided by the product of 2 and a

`(24)/(2* a)\\\\=(24)/(2a)`

3. 150 decreased by the quantity of 6 plus b

`(6+b)-150\\\\=6+b-150\\\\=b-144`

4. The sum of twice c and 10

`2c+10`

5. Marlo had $35 but then spent $m.

`35-m`

6. Samantha saved her money and was able to quadruple the original amount, m.

`4* m=4m`

7. Veronica increased her grade, g, by 4 points and then doubled it.

`2(g+4)=2g+8`

8. Adbell had m pieces of candy and ate 5 of them. Then, he split the remaining candy equally among 4 friends.

`(m-5)/(4)`

9. To find out how much paint is needed, Mr. Jones must square the side length, s, of the gate and then subtract 15.

`s^2-15`

10. Luis brought x cans of cola to the party, Faith brought dd cans of cola, and De’Shawn brought h cans of cola. How many cans of cola did they bring altogether?

`x+dd+h`
