Steps:

4x + 8 = 2x + 7 + 2x - 20

Group like terms:

4x + 8 = 2x + 2x + 7 - 20

Add similar elements: 2x + 2x = 4x

4x + 8 =4x + 7 - 20

Add/Subtract the numbers: 7 - 20 = -13

4x + 8 = 4x - 13

Subtract 8 from both sides

4x + 8 - 8 = 4x - 13 - 8

Simplify:

4x = 4x - 21

Subtract 4x from both sides:

4x - 4x = 4x - 21 - 4x

Simplify

0 = -21

Hope this helps! :) and Happy Halloween! ~Zane

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

x+(x-3)+(2*x)=41

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the other two bills are based of of a constant value for fives. Therefore, the fives can be x. There are 3 less tens than fives, so the number of tens equals x-3. We double the number of fives to get the number of ones, so the number of ones equals 2 times x. When we add all 3 of those together, we get our total number of 41. If you want to solve, you have to solve for x, then you can plug it back into the formula. I hope this helps!
