Sage and Tom started the month with the same number of talk minutes on their cell phones. Sage talked for 7 minutes with her dad. Tom talked for 4 minutes with a friend and 3 more minutes with his mom. Do Sage and Tom have the same number of talk minutes left on their cell phone plans? Write an algebraic expression to represent the number of minutes Tom has left. Question 1

a. Sage and Tom have the same number of talk minutes left on their cell phone plans.

b. y = x - 7

Explanation:

Sage talked for 7 minutes with her dad.

Tom talked for 4 minutes with a friend and 3 more minutes with his mom which means he spoke for :

= 4 + 3

= 7 minutes

They both spoke for 7 minutes and therefore have the same amount of time left.

Algebraic expression:

Assuming the time Tom started with is denoted by x and the time he is left with is denoted by y.

The expression is:

y = x - 7
