Question
You and your friend are selling magazine subscriptions for a fundraiser. After w weeks, you have sold (3w+4) subscriptions and your friend has sold (5w+1) subscriptions.

a. Write an expression in simplest form that represents the difference between the number of subscriptions your friend has sold and the number you have sold.

b. After 5 weeks, your friend has sold
more subscriptions than you.

Answer 1

Answer:

Your friend sold (5w + 1) subscriptions.

You sold (3w + 4) subscriptions.

The difference between what your friend sold and what you sold is

(5w + 1 ) - (3w + 4)

= 5w + 1 - 3w - 4

= 5w - 3w + 1 - 4

= 2w - 3

Answer: 2w - 3

If it is negative then it means the subscription sold by friend is less than the subscription sold by me and if it is positive then it means the subscription sold by friend is more than the subscription sold by me.
