The answer is -9 because you have to multiply the two numbers.
Let
x------> the number of multiple choice question
y------> the number of free response question
we know that
-----> equation A

-----> equation B
Substitute equation B in equation A
Find the value of x


therefore
<u>the answer is</u>
the number of multiple choice question are 
the number of free response question are 
<span>Commutative Property is the property in which you can move around numbers in numerical operations like, addition and multiplication while retaining their result. In contrast to subtraction and division in which position is an important factor for every result, here it is regardless. </span>Why might you want to use this property?<span>Well, most importantly it suits the operation of addition and hence, to ensure the arrangement of the number is in symmetric proportion to its counterpart such as 3 + 2=2 + 3. Or rather, understanding that the equations in both sides are but the same and equal in sum. Thus, this is much more usable or will make more sense if used in a larger scale of complex equations and integers.<span>
