Plzplzplz equation can be used to find the answer? an auto part warehouse shipped 96 cases of oil filters and still had 172 cases on its shelves. how many cases did it have on its shelves before the shipment? a. c + 96 = 172 c = 76 76 cases b. c ÷ 2 = 96 c = 192 192 cases c. c ÷ 2 = 172 c = 344 344 cases d. c – 96 = 172 c = 268 268 cases

It D.
C - 96 = 172
C = 268.

Hello!

I believe that the answer, in this case, would be choice D. My reasoning behind this solution is that if you were shipping 96 cases and then afterward you were left with 172, you would add 96 and 172. The answer would be 268. C, in this case, represents the number of cases on the shelf. If you shipped 96, you would lose 96. (c-96). This would equal the number left on your shelf or (172). This leads you to the answer of c-96=172 or Choice D.
