Question

Write the word sentence as an equation. Then solve.

8 less than a number n is -10.
A) n-8=-10; n = -2
C) n-8=-10; n = 2
B) 8-n=-10; n =-18
D) 8– n == 10; n = 18

Answer 1

It’s A.
n-8=-10
n=-2

Answer 2

the answer is A

Explanation:

if -2 is N then -2-8=-8

if 2 is N then 2-8=-6

if -18 is N then 8--18=26

if 18 is N then 8-18=-10
