Answer:
Both of your answers are correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
Expand the equations by distributing the number outside of the parentheses. After doing the expansion, your equations are both correct.
Which numbers do you want? Also, you have to do the same thing on the other side if you do it on one.
-------------------------------------
Expression
-------------------------------------
5x - 3x
-------------------------------------
Substitute x = 2
-------------------------------------
5 (2) - 3(2)
= 10 - 6
= 4
-------------------------------------
Answer: 4
-------------------------------------
Okay so we have
$1.60 x .10 = .16
1.60 - .16 = $1.44
so
1.44 x 4 = $5.76
1.44 / 2 = .72
$5.76 + .72 = $6.48
so your answer is $6.48 [B]
