4(x - 2) + 6 = 2(5x - 6) <em>use distributive property</em>
(4)(x) + (4)(-2) + 6 = (2)(5x) + (2)(-6)
4x - 8 + 6 = 10x - 12
4x - 2 = 10x - 12 <em>add 2 to both sides</em>
4x = 10x - 10 <em>subtract 10 from both sides</em>
-6x = -10 <em>divide both sides by (-6)</em>
x = 10/6
<h3>x = 5/3</h3>

Let’s designate the number of banana splits sold as x. That means the number of sundaes sold is x + 8.
Now if we put this into an equation, also keeping in mind their costs, we get:
3(x) + 2(x + 8) = 156
Now to solve for x:
3x + 2(x + 8) = 156
3x + 2x + 16 = 156
5x = 140
x = 28
That means you’ve sold 28 banana splits and 36 sundaes! :)
Answer:
x | -7 -5 -3
y | -21 -15 -9
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 3x
If x = -7 then y = 3 × (-7) = -21
x = -5 then y = 3 × (-5) = -15
x = -3 then y = 3 × (-3) = -9
The answers to the questions are C=11 and D=3
