-3(x + 5) + 8 = 2(x + 4) - 6
-3x + (-15) + 8 = 2x + 8 - 6
-3x - 23 = 2x + 2
-3x - 2x - 23 = 2x - 2x + 2
-5x - 23 = 2
-5x - 23 + 23 = 2 + 23
-5x = 25
-5x/-5 = 25/-5
x = -5

aleksklad [387]

Answer:

Mia scored 6 baskets Last Saturday.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let:

Mia made score of baskets on Last Saturday = x

Mia made score of baskets yesterday = 3x (Mia made three times as many baskets in yesterday’s basketball game as she did last Saturday. three times means multiply 3 with score of Last Saturday baskets, i.e. x)

Total score of baskets = 24

We need to find How many baskets did Mia score last Saturday?

We can write:

Total Score = Score on Last Saturday + Score yesterday

$24=x+3x$
