Hey there!
5x - 50 + 2x + 80 - x = 180
COMBINE the LIKE TERMS
= 6x + 30 = 180
SUBTRACT 30 to BOTH SIDES
6x + 30 - 30 = 180 - 30
CANCEL out: -30 - 30 because that gives you 0
KEEP: 180 - 30 because it helps solve for the x-value
6x = 180 - 30
180 - 30 = 150
NEW EQUATION: 6x = 150
DIVIDE 6 to BOTH SIDES
6x/6 P 150/6
CANCEL out: 150/6 because that gives you the result of the x-value
x = 150/6
SIMPLIFY IT!
x = 25
Therefore, your answer is: x = 25
Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

It seems appropriate to use the linear regression function of your calculator for this. Looking at the data, you know the slope is generally positive, so only the 1st and 3rd choices are potentially viable.
A calculator shows the correlation coefficient (r) rounds to 0.816, so the appropriate selection is ...
A. 0.816
Answer:
2(28)=23+x
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 28 students and each student needs two brownies. You have to multiply 28 by 2 so you will have to total number on one side.
On the other you need to have the number of brownies you have at the moment and x for the number you need to bake. You want to add them because you will need to put those numbers together to get the number on the opposite side.
28x2=56 so 56=23+x. Subtract the 23 from both sides to get 33=x. x=33
To check plug 33 into x to get 2(28)=23+33. 56=23+33. 56=56
you need 33 more brownies.
So the equation would be 2(28)=23+x.
Hope that helps.
