Question

PLEASE HELP MEH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

The first option.

Explanation:

She originally has 15 cupcakes, if she gives 13 away to her friends and 2 away to her teacher then she would end up with 0, which rules out two options, but the second down would be someone giving her cupcakes, due to the addition symbol, so it's the first option.

Hope this helps and have a good day!:)

Answer 2

A) 15+ (-13) + (-2) = 0

Explanation:

we start off with 15 cupcakes in total. Our number of cupcakes decreases when we give 13 to our friends. 15-13=2 so we have 2 cupcakes left. If we then give the remaining 2 cupcakes to our teachers, then we are left with 0 cupcakes.

The way to express this as an equation is 15 - 13 - 2 = 0 , which is equivalent to 15+(-13)+(-2)=0
