Question

If s = 14 which equation is true?

3(20 - s) = 44
3(12 -s) = 6
2( s - 3) = 22
2s - 3 = 22

Answer 1

2(s - 3) = 22 where s = 14

Explanation:

You will plug 14 in the s variable to all of the equation to find out if it equals to the answer given.

s = 14

3(20 - 14) = 44

3(6) = 44

18 = 44 False

3(12 - 14) = 6

3(-2) = 6

-6 = 6 False

2(14 - 3) = 22

2(11) = 22

22 = 22 TRUE

2(14) - 3 = 22

28 - 3 = 22

25 = 22 False

I hope this helps, thank you :) !!
