Answer:

26=x

Step-by-step explanation:

well you need to do the distributive property.

-3(x-2) = -6x+6

9(x+8) = 9x+72

-6x+6=9x+72

now you subtract -6x from -6x and 9x

and add 72 to 6

-6x   +6  =9x +   72

-6x + 72  -6x     -72

78=3x

divide them both by 3

26=x

Answer:

If only Jim purchased a cup of coffee, we will subtract its cost from the total;

9.50 - 1.00 = 8.50

Assuming that the two purchased nothing else for breakfast, and that the cost of an egg scramble was the same for both, let's call the price of the egg scramble x.

Since they both bought eggs, then 2x = 8.50

x = $4.25, the price for each egg scramble
