Question

Travis wrote the following equation to model the number of chairs, x, that he is renting for a graduation party 2x - 6 = x + 24

Answer 1

we have

`2x-6=x+24`

the number of chairs rented is x

The sentence :

The difference of twice the number of chairs rented and 6

that means 2x-6

is equivalent

that means equal

to the sum of the number of chairs rented and 24

that means x+24

so the correct answer is A.
