The answer would be C. (12 x 5) - (s x 2) = 38.
This is because if there are 12 students with 5 pencils per student, we can say 12 x 5. Then, think of the phrase, two pencils lost per student. That would be 2s, or (s x 2). Since it’s lost, we would subtract that amount from 12 x 5.
Answer:
a=-36
Step-by-step explanation:
1/6(a+12)=-4
1) Distribute <u>1/6</u> to a and 12:
1/6a+2=-4
2) Subtract 2 from both sides:
1/6a=-6
3) Multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 1/6: (6/1)
a=-36

5x+y=-3 is the standard form
