Describe a situation that matches the equation. 34 = g + 25
Jack has 25 marbles. Mary gives him 34 marbles. How many marbles does Jack have?
A person bikes 34 miles on Monday and 25 miles on Tuesday. How many miles total did the person bike?
The temperature on Monday was 25 degrees below zero and on Tuesday the temperature got up to 34 degrees. What was the increase in temperature between Monday and Tuesday?
The eighth-grade class has 34 students. The year before, when the students were in seventh grade, there were 25 students. How many students were added between seventh and eighth grade?
please help
C involves a negative number: (34 - -25) = 34+25
so, D
To solve the equation 34 = g + 25, we need to find the value of 'g'. The equation is saying that the sum of 'g' and 25 equals 34. So, we need to subtract 25 from both sides of the equation to isolate the variable 'g'.
Starting with the equation: 34 = g + 25
To isolate 'g', we can subtract 25 from both sides:
34 - 25 = (g + 25) - 25
This simplifies to:
9 = g
Therefore, in the given situations:
1. Jack has 25 marbles, and Mary gives him 34 marbles. To find how many marbles Jack has, we substitute the value of 'g' in the equation with 9. So, Jack would have 9 marbles.
2. A person bikes 34 miles on Monday and 25 miles on Tuesday. To find the total miles biked, we substitute 'g' with 9. So, the person would have biked 9 miles total.
3. The temperature on Monday was 25 degrees below zero (negative temperature), and on Tuesday, the temperature got up to 34 degrees. The increase in temperature between Monday and Tuesday would be given by 'g'. Substituting the value of 'g' in the equation with 9, the increase in temperature would be 9 degrees.
4. The eighth-grade class has 34 students, and the year before, when they were in seventh grade, there were 25 students. The number of students added between seventh and eighth grade is given by 'g'. So, there would be 9 students added between seventh and eighth grade.
