Q. Justin earned 77 extra credit points. Pamela earned pp fewer extra credit points than Justin. Choose the expression that shows how many extra credit points Pamela earned.\newlineChoices:\newline(A) 7p7 - p\newline(B) pp\newline(C) 7+p7 + p\newline(D) p7p - 7
  1. Calculate points difference: Justin got 77 points, and Pamela got pp fewer, so we gotta subtract pp from 77. \newline7p7 - p
  2. Verify correct choice: Check the choices to see which one matches our calculation.\newline(A) 7p7 - p is the right one, cuz it's exactly what we did.
