Noah says that 9x − 2x + 4x is equivalent to 3x because the subtraction sign tells us to subtract everything that comes after 9x.

Elena says that 9x − 2x + 4x is equivalent to 11x because the subtraction only applies to 2x.

Do you agree with either of these claims?

Noah's claim is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

B O D M A S - Brackets, Over, Division, Multiplication, Addition and Subtraction, this means that you must do the addition first.  

2x+ 4x = 6x

9x - 6x = 3x

Noah is correct as the - sign tells us that you have to subtract everything after the 9x

Hope this is ok and helps a little bit

fa tha first one you gonna add y to both sides

it look like this

x-y+y=6+y

x=y+6

therefore your answer is

x =y+6

fa tha second one

you gonna flip tha equation

it gonna look like x-4y=y

then add 4 to both sides

it gonna look like tha

x-4 +4 =y +4

so therefore tha answer is x=y+4

step-by-step explanation:

the answer is 13 cm
