Substitute 2x+1 where y is in the equation:
9x-2(2x+1)=8
Then distribute the -2(2x+1)
9x-4x+2=8
Then combine like terms (the x)
5x+2=8
Then do -2 on both side of the equation sign
5x+2=8
- 2 -2
Then you'd get
5x=6
Then divide 5 on both sides
X= 1.2

Answer:
Alexis: 2.5x
Gary: x
James: x + 18
Total: (2.5x) + (x) + (x + 18)
= 4.5x + 18
Bonus:
4.5x + 18 = 1206
4.5x = 1188
x = 264
Alexis: 2.5(264) = 660
Gary: 264
James: 264 + 18 = 282
True would be the correct answer for this problem.
