Alana and Petra bought 9 books combined.
Angus bought 19 books and had a $10 discount.
Angus spent $5 more than Alana and Petra combined.

This means that the price of 19 books is $15 more than the price of 9 books. 19 books is 10 books more than 9 books.

Giving you 10 books = $15, 1 book = $1.50

Paladinen [302]

Answer:

x = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

6x-22+2x=8x-4

so first you want to add 4 to both sides so it becomes 6x-18=8x now substract 6x from both sides to get -18=2x now divide that by 2 and you get x= -9
