Q. Lexi bought a package with tt cat treats. She gave 22 of the treats to her cat. Choose the expression that shows the number of treats remaining.\newlineChoices:\newline(A) t+2t + 2\newline(B) 2t2 - t\newline(C) 22\newline(D) t2t - 2
  1. Identify initial treats: Lexi starts with tt treats, and she gives away 22, so we need to subtract 22 from tt to find out how many are left;
  2. Subtract 22 treats: The correct expression for the remaining treats is tt minus 22, which is written as t2t - 2;
  3. Calculate remaining treats: So, the answer is (D)t2(D)t - 2;
