1. Which calculation best matches the expression 3y + 2?
A. 3 times 2, plus y
B. 3 times y, plus 2
C. 3 times the sum ofy and 2
D. 3 times the difference of y and 2


Answer :

the answer is "B" (3 times y, plus 2). we know this bc 3y just means 3(y), and then you add 2. we also know can use process of elimination. "A" would be written as 3(2)+y, "C" would be written as 3(y+2), and "D" would be written as 3(y-2). hope this helped :)
The answer is: B - 3 times y, plus 2.
