10(0.5x + 6) = 8
5x + 60 = 8
5x = 8 - 60
5x = -52
x = -52/5
x = -10.4
the x s are the independent variable so any direct change to them is changing the independent. like the second one has -5 on the x
This is how I solved it.
2.5 multiplied by 3 is 7.5, which equals how many she takes a day.
Then I multiplied 7.5 by 10 = 75. I did that because the meds are taken for 10 days.
Also if you added 7.5 ten times is also 75.
So my final answer is that 75 tablets have been taken in total.
