HELP I'll GIVE BRAINLIEST Tim was 27 years old 9 years ago. Which equation will tell you how old he is now? A) x + 9 = 27 B) x − 9 = 27 C) x + 9 = −27 D) x − 9 = −27
x -9 will get you 27 (36 is the answer), but you can try every answer and see which one makes sense, as B is the only one that makes sense (D would have been the answer if it was the absolute value which is B)
