Translate the algebraic expression

−16

n

into words. Select all that apply.

The difference of –16 and a number

The quotient of –16 and a number

A number divided by –16

Negative 16 divided by a number

The quotient of a number and 16

The quotient of –16 and a number

Negative 16 divided by a number

Step-by-step explanation:

  We are required to translate the algebraic expression -16/n into words. Before we translate, it will be necessary to note that quotient is the outcome or result of division of a term by another term.

  For example, if the expression that we are faced with is 20/5, then the quotient of 20 and 5 is 4.

 If we are required to solve 12/2 then 6 which is the result is the quotient of 12 and 2.

 Now, if we are presented with the algebraic expression:

      -16/n

  Then, there are two ways we can successfully translate this expression and they are:

a. Negative sixteen divided by a number.

b. The quotient of negative sixteen and a number.

 Let us consider the options given to us:-

*** The difference of -16 and a number this is wrong because the expression doesn't entail subtracting a number from negative sixteen or vice versa

***The quotient of -16 and a number This is correct.

*** A number divided by -16 This is wrong. on the contrary, -16 is being divided by a number.

*** Negative 16 divided by a number This is correct

*** The quotient of a number and 16 This is wrong because one of the figures is negative 16 and not +16.

 The two options that successfully translated the algebraic expression are options B and D.

B/ The quotient of –16 and a number

D/ Negative 16 divided by a number

Step-by-step explanation:

i got it right

341

step-by-step explanation:

all you have to do is 9x31 (which equals 279) and then 20x31 (which equals 620). then you have to subtract. 620-279=341.
