Variable p is 2 more than variable d. Variable p is also 1 less than variable d. Which pair of equations best models the relationship between p and d?

p = d + 2

p = d - 1

p = d - 2

p = d + 1

d = 2p

d = 2p - 1

d = 2p

d = 2p + 1

Variable p is 2 more than variable d. Variable p is also 1 less than variable d. Which pair of equations best models the relationship between p and d?

p = d + 2

p = d - 1

p = d - 2

p = d + 1

d = 2p

d = 2p - 1

d = 2p

d = 2p + 1

Agustin Shea · Answer 1

If you would like to find a pair of equations that best models the relationship between p and d, you can do this using the following steps:

p is 2 more than d ... p = d + 2

p is 1 less than d ... p = d - 1

The correct result would be p = d + 2 and p = d - 1.

Tipr · Answer 2

P is 2 more than d means p = 2 + d

p is 1 less than d means p = d - 1

Then the first pair models the relationship between p and d.

Variable p is 2 more than variable d. Variable p is also 1 less than variable d. Which pair of equations best models the relationship between p and d?p = d + 2p = d - 1p = d - 2p = d + 1d = 2pd = 2p - 1d = 2pd = 2p + 1
