Question

Solve the equation 250 less than the product of 289 and y equals q more than 275

a) 289y−250=q+275

b) 250−289y=275+q

c) 275+q=250−289y

d) q+275=289y−250

Answer 1

The correct answer is option (d) q+275=289y−250. To solve the equation, we need to translate the given sentence into an algebraic equation. Here, 'the product of 289 and y' can be represented as '289y', and '250 less than the product of 289 and y' can be represented as '289y - 250'. Similarly, 'q more than 275' can be represented as 'q + 275'. Therefore, the equation is 289y−250=q+275.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is option (d) q+275=289y−250.

To solve the equation, we need to translate the given sentence into an algebraic equation.
