It's 5. Just took this test and got this question right :)
The term (2 + 8) is described as the total amount of pieces of fabric. It makes it easier to put this term this way so you wouldn't have to do (8 x 5) + (2 x 5) and do the distributive property.
8 + 3 (4 - n )
n= 3
8 + 3( 4-3)
8 + 3 * 1
8 + 3 = 11

Divide 2 on both sides so that the only thing remaining on the left side is the variable x.
Final Answer: x = 2</span>
As for this problem, the answer would most probably be and most likely be C. The piles of bones foreshadow Fortunato's fate.
In the first option, symbolizing wasn't used in present tense but a simple mixing of present and past tense. The more appropriate form of the sentence would be "The catacombs was dark and cold which symbolized death." This would be a lot more understandable and it will not create confusion to the readers because of the inconsistency of the usage of tenses. The second option and the last option would be both in past tenses. The correct one is used in plural present form.
