74-2=72 and 72 times 3=216 that willl be your answer
14x+2=12x
[subtract 2 on both sides]
14x=12x-2
[subtract 12x on both sides]
2x=-2
[divide 2 on both sides]
x=-1
So 8x+4+4x+8=15x-9
Combine like terms.
12x+12=15x-9
Add 9 to both sides.
12x+21=15x
Subtract 12 from both sides.
21=3x
Divide both sides by 3.
x=7
Now plug in 7 for x in 8x+4.
8(7)+4
56+4
=60
∠VUR and ∠QRU are alternate interior angles, the line that links them is Z-shaped, which means that these angles are equal, so that:
E, because he is stealing everything, meaning he has a net profit. So, you would add everything. Since he 280 $1 bills, he just stole $280 which is a definite quantity, so we don't need a variable for it. Since everything else are indefinite quantities, we need variables (x, y, z). But, yeah, E should be the answer.
