I am sorry i dont understand
Simplify brackets
2/5(x - 4) = 2x
Simplify 2/5(x - 4) to 2(x - 4)/5
2(x - 4)/5 = 2x
Multiply both sides by 5
2(x - 4) = 10x
Divide both sides by 2
x - 4 = 5x
Subtract x from both sides
-4 = 5x - x
Simplify 5x - x to 4x
-4 = 4x
Divide both sides by 4
-1 = x
Switch sides
<u>x = -1</u>

Answer:
12 months
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Mario:
12 stamps per month
Since January
Karen :
18 stamps per month
Starts on july
Number of stamps collected by Mario till the end of June :
12 * 6 = 72 stamps
For Mario :
72 + 12x
For karen:
18x
Where x is the number of months after karen starts :
Equate both equations
72 + 12x = 18x
72 = 18x - 12x
72 = 6x
x = 72/6
x = 12
After 12 months
Number of months after karen starts, will they have same amount of stamp
