To determine which of the given choices can be used to verify the equation [tex]\(205 - 110 = 95\)[/tex], let's analyze each of the statements individually:
1. Statement 1: [tex]\(205 + 110 + 95 = 410\)[/tex]
- Adding the numbers:
[tex]\[
205 + 110 + 95 = 410
\][/tex]
- This equation is mathematically correct because the sum on the left side equals the value on the right side.
2. Statement 2: [tex]\(205 + 110 = 315\)[/tex]
- Adding the numbers:
[tex]\[
205 + 110 = 315
\][/tex]
- This equation is mathematically correct as well because the sum on the left side equals the value on the right side.
3. Statement 3: [tex]\(110 + 95 = 205\)[/tex]
- Adding the numbers:
[tex]\[
110 + 95 = 205
\][/tex]
- This equation is correct because the sum on the left side equals the value on the right side.
4. Statement 4: [tex]\(205 + 95 = 300\)[/tex]
- Adding the numbers:
[tex]\[
205 + 95 = 300
\][/tex]
- This equation is also correct because the sum on the left side equals the value on the right side.
To summarize, all four statements are mathematically valid choices that align with the given equation [tex]\(205 - 110 = 95\)[/tex] and they can be used to cross-check it in the given context.
Thus, the choices which can be used to check the answer in the equation are:
[tex]\[
1, 2, 3, \text{ and } 4
\][/tex]
