Answer :
The correct equations that represent the statement "The value of 81 is 19 more than j" are:
1. [tex]\(19 + j = 81\)[/tex]
2. [tex]\(81 = j + 19\)[/tex]
The statement "The value of 81 is 19 more than j" indicates that if you add 19 to the value of j , you will get 81.
This can be represented by the equation ( 19 + j = 81 ), where ( j ) represents the unknown value.
Similarly, the equation 81 = j + 19 also represents the same relationship. It states that if you add 19 to j , you will get 81.
On the other hand, the equations [tex]\( 81 \times j = 19 \)[/tex] and [tex]\( 19 \times j = 81 \)[/tex] do not represent the given statement.
They imply that the product of 81 and j is 19 or the product of 19 and j is 81, which is not what the original statement implies.
The equation [tex]\( 81 = j - 19 \)[/tex] indicates that 81 is 19 less than j, which contradicts the original statement.
Finally, the equation [tex]\( 81 \div j = 19 \)[/tex] implies that if you divide 81 by j, you will get 19, which also does not match the original statement.
Question:
Select the two correct answers.
Which equations correctly represent the statement shown?
The value of 81 is 19 more than j.
19 + j = 81
81 = j + 19
81 × j = 19
19 × j = 81
81 = j - 19
81 ÷ j = 19
