Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, simplify. Note that both terms have the same amount of variables:

17g - 2g = 15g

Now, choose the answer choice that will also give 15g as an answer choice. Remember to follow PEMDAS. First solve the parenthesis:

(17 - 2)g = (15)g

A. (17 - 2)g is your answer.
