Solve for a:

5 - a = 9

• a = 4

• a = -4

• a = 14

• a = -14

Subtract the expressions: (2x + 5) − (x + 4) =

• x + 1

• 3x + 9

• −x + 1

• x + 9

Subtract the expressions:

(2x + 5) − (x + 4).

• x + 1

• 3x + 9

• −x + 1

• x + 9

(7a + 4) - (9a + 2)
^{(its subtraction not addition)}

• -2a + 6

• 16a + 6

• -2a + 2

• 2a + 2

Subtract the expressions: (7a + 4) - (9a + 2)

• -2a + 6

• 16a + 6

• -2a + 2

• 2a + 2

x - 8 = 16

• x = 24

• x = 8

• x = 16

• x = 9
