Question

By how much does 1 exceed 2x - 3y - 4?

Answer 1

Answer:

1 will exceed 2x-3y-4 by 3y-2x+5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the value

$2x - 3y - 4$

we have to find the value for which the number 1 exceeds from the given value i.e 2x - 3y - 4

Let A=2x - 3y - 4

Now let B be the value from which 1 exceeds from A i.e

1 exceeds A=2x-3y-4 by:

$B=1-A$

$=1-(2x-3y-4)$

Opening the brackets we get 1-2x+3y+4.

Combining like terms:

$1+4-2x+3y$

$= 5 - 2x + 3y$

i.e 3y -2x+5

Therefore 1 will exceed 2x-3y-4 by 3y-2x+5.

Answer 2

Answer:

To find :By how much does 1 exceed 2x-3y-4

2x-3y-4 - 1=2x-3y-5

Thus,1 exceed 2x-3y-4 by 2-3y-5
