The first thing you should do to solve this equation would be to distribute.
After distributing it would look like this
4x-12-5x-5=3

-x = 20

<span>4(x - 3) - 5(x + 1) = 3

4x - 12 - 5x - 5 = 3

-12 - 5 - 3 = 5x - 4x

x = -20

vladimir2022 [97]

It is given in the question that

Anna buys 12 pens and 20 pencils for a total cost of $16. One pen costs $0.40 more than a pencil.

Let the cost of pencil is $ x .

Therefore cost of pen is

$(x+0.40)

According to the question

12(x+0.40)+20x =16

Distributing 12 and combining like terms, we will get

12x+4.8+20x=16\\32x = 11.2\\x = 0.35

Therefore cost of pencil is $0.35 and cost of pen is

0.35+0.40=0.75
