We are asked to evaluate Marlena's solution in solving the expression below: 2x+5 = -10 -x The first step is to re-write the expression and transpose same terms in the left side while all numbers are transferred to the right side such as shown below: Step 0: 2x+5 = -10 -x Step 1: 2x + x = -10 -5 Step 2: 3x = -15 Step 3: x =-15/3 The answer is x=-5.
Jorge would have $8.25 left. This answer does not include 9 cups + the $1.75 it said he bought in the beginning. I’m pretty sure the 9 is the total amount of cups he bought. If it isn’t then subtract another $1.75 and you should get $6.50
