2(4 - 2r) = -2(r + 5)
First, divide both sides by -2. / Your problem should look like:
Second, regroup your terms. / Your problem should look like:
Third, add 4 to both sides. / Your problem should look like:
Fourth, add r + 5 + 4 to get r + 9. / Your problem should look like:
Fifth, subtract r from both sides. / Your problem should look like:
Sixth, subtract 2r - r to get r. / Your problem should look like:

Answer:
r = 9
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- Let (applicable to all three lines below)
- Hard candy = x kg with price $1.60/kg
- Gummy worms = y kg with price $2.20/kg
- Total weight = 50 kg with mixed price $1.75/kg
<u>Required equations:</u>
- x + y = 50 total weight
- 1.60x + 2.20y = 50*1.75 total price
=========================================
<u><em>Note</em></u><em>. It says don't solve but the solution below for those who is interested to know the answer.</em>
<u>Simplify the second equation and solve by substitution x = 50 - y:</u>
- 1.6(50 - y) + 2.2y = 87.5
- 80 - 1.6y +2.2y = 87.5
- 0.6y = 7.5
- y = 7.5/0.6
- y = 12.5
<u>Find the value of x:</u>
<u>Hard candy</u> = 37.5 kg and <u>gummy worms</u> = 12.5 kg
The answer to the question
This is for the answer to X
