The amount of money that Carly would have left if she doesn't buy any packs of baseball cards is $20.

<h3>How to calculate the amount of money?</h3>

In order to calculate the amount of money that Carly would have left if she doesn't buy any packs of baseball cards, we would determine the cost of each baseball card as follows:

Let the cost of each baseball card be x.

Let the number of cards bought be n.

Translating the word problem into an algebraic expression, we have;

x - n = 16

x - 2n = 12

Solving the simultaneous equations by elimination, we have:

n = 4

Therefore, Carly's minimum balance is given by:

x - n = 16

x = 16 + n

x = 16 + 4

x = $20.

How the heck do I do this? And what’s the answer?

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find two expressions that, when simplified, give the same results.

1) First, simplify the expression stated in the question. Multiply each of the terms in the parentheses by the number that is next to them. This would mean you have to multiply both 9x and -6 by $\frac{2}{3}$ . You also have to multiply $\frac{1}{2}x$ and $-\frac{1}{2}$ by 4. Then, simplify.

$\frac{2}{3}(9x-6) + 4 (\frac{1}{2} x - \frac{1}{2})\\\frac{18}{3}x- \frac{12}{3} + \frac{4}{2}x -\frac{4}{2} \\6x - 4 + 2x - 2$

2) Now, combine the like terms.

$6x - 4 + 2x - 2$

$8x - 6$

So, we need to find which of the expressions listed equal 8x - 6.

3) Let's try option A. Do the same as before. Multiply each of the terms in the parentheses by the number that is next to them. So, multiply 4x and -12 by $\frac{3}{4}$ . Also, multiply 30x and 18 by $\frac{1}{6}$ . Then, combine like terms and simplify.
