ANSWER

EXPLANATION
First equation:

Second equation:

Let us equate the two equations and solve for x.
This implies that;

Group similar terms to obtain:

Simplify:

Divide both sides by 3

Put x=-2 into any of the equations.
I will put x=-2 into the first equation:

This implies that,

3(3x+8)=4(2x+8)
9x+24=8x+32
x=8
2(8)=16
3(8)=24
that means that the younger brother is 16 years old
Answer:
C. 4x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
You and three friends= you + 3 friends=4 people
Pizza= 12 pieces
Each person eats equal pieces of pizza
x= number of pieces each person ate
Equation
4x=12
Divide both sides by 4
x=12/4
=3
x=3
Therefore, each person ate 3 pieces of pizza each
Check:
4x=12
4(3)=12
12=12
First factor -12m^n - 49mn - 44n^2 to get -(4n+3m)(11n + 4m) then the equation would be:
-(3m + 4n)(4m + 11n) / (-3m - 4n)
Then, cancel out the like terms and the final answer would be
4m + 11n
The answer is A
