Answer:

x=15

Step-by-step explanation:

8(4-x)=7x+2

Distribute

32 - 8x = 7x+2

Add 8x to each side

32 - 8x+8x = 7x+8x+2

32 = 15x+2

Subtract 2 from each side

32-2 = 15x +2-2

30 = 15x

Divide by 15

30/15 = 15x/15

2 = x

If you do it 144 times that is (3+9)*12
This means that 12 times 3 red and 9 blue counters will be chosen that means that 9 blue counters will be chosen 12 times. 9*12 is 108.
This means blue counters will be chosen 108 times.
This can be checked as 108/3 would give you the number of red counters which is 36 and 108+36 is 144
