Question

8 After 6 new people joined a swim team, the team had 42 members. Which equation can be used to find p, the number of people on the swim team before the 6 new people joined?(6.9A, SS, RC2)F: P - 6 = 42G: P = 42 6 6H: p + 6 = 42J: бр = 42

Answer 1

Let's use the variable P to represent the number of people on the swim team before the 6 new people joined.

If after joining 6 more people, the number of people is 42, the sum of P and 6 is equal 42, so we have the equation:

`P+6=42`

So the correct option is H.
