Well that symbol is an indention or multiply sign of expression
Minus them both to get your answer
$20 bought 16 songs
Therefore each song costs $20/16 = $5/4 = $1.25
So:
2 songs would cost 2 * $1.25
3 songs would cost 3 * $1.25
...
x songs would cost x * $1.25
Since Renata started with $20, then her balance (y) after buying x songs would be:
y = 20 - 1.25*x
Answer:
x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define Equation</u>
2(6x + 4) - 6 + 2x = 3(4x + 3) + 1
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Distribute: 12x + 8 - 6 + 2x = 12x + 9 + 1
- Combine like terms: 14x + 2 = 12x + 10
- Subtract 12x on both sides: 2x + 2 = 10
- Subtract 2 on both sides: 2x = 8
- Divide 2 on both sides: x = 4
