Question

Variable g is 5 more than variable w. Variable g is also 2 less than w. Which pair of equations best models the relationship between g and w? g = w + 5 g = w − 2 g = w − 5 g = w + 2 w = 5g w = g − 2 w = 5g w = g + 2

Answer 1

G=w+5, g=w-2

Explanation:

if g is 5 more than w, then g=5+ w

if g is 2 less than w, then g=w-2

Answer 2

g = w + 5
