Answer:

[tex]18 = 114 - 6b[/tex]

Explanation:

Given

[tex]Total\ Brownies = 114[/tex]

[tex]Sold\ out = 6\ bags[/tex]

[tex]Left = 18\ brownies[/tex]

Required

Express using algebraic expression

The relationship between the given parameters is

[tex]Total\ Brownies = Sold\ out + Left\ Brownies[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]114 = 6\ bags + 18\ brownies[/tex]

Represent bags with b

[tex]114= 6b + 18[/tex]

Subtract 6b from both sides

[tex]114 - 6b = 6b - 6b + 18[/tex]

[tex]114 - 6b = 18[/tex]

Reorder

[tex]18 = 114 - 6b[/tex]
