n − 14 = 37
; Trina sold 51 boxes.
n minus 14 equals 37 ; Trina sold 51 boxes.

n + 37 = 14
; Trina sold 23 boxes.
n plus 37 equals 14 ; Trina sold 23 boxes.

n − 37 = 14
; Trina sold 51 boxes.
n minus 37 equals 14 ; Trina sold 51 boxes.

n + 14 = 37
; Trina sold 23 boxes.

Answer 1

To solve the problem, we need to set up the equation based on the information given. Yuri sold 14 boxes, and together they sold a total of 37 boxes. Therefore, we can express the total number of boxes sold as:

Yuri's boxes + Trina's boxes = Total boxes sold

This can be written as:

14 + n = 37

Now, to isolate n (the number of boxes Trina sold), we can rearrange this equation:

n = 37 - 14 n = 23

Thus, the equation that represents the number of boxes Trina sold is:

n + 14 = 37; Trina sold 23 boxes.

So the correct response is: n + 14 = 37; Trina sold 23 boxes.
