I'd say x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

use distributive property first to get...

-2 + 12x - 9 = 16

now look for the like terms and solve...

-2 + 12x -9 = 16

-2 + 3(4x - 3) = 16
-2 + 12x - 9 = 16
-11 + 12x = 16
-11 + 11 + 12x = 16 + 11
12x = 27
12x/12 = 27/12
X = 2 3/12
X = 2 1/4

Butoxors [25]

Answer:

10 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

So in order to figure this out you have to work backwards. First, Daniel came and took a cookie. So when he took 1 there were 3 cookies available. Next Christine took one fourth of the cookies, meaning that the 3 available cookies are the remaining 3/4's. When she got there she took 1. Then Beth came and took 1/3. For it to be 3/3 there has to be 1 and 1/3 more cookies. Now there are 5 and 1/3 cookies. Amanda came and ate half of the cookies meaning that the amount of cookies we have now is the other half that she didnt eat. 5 and 1/3 plus 5 and 1/3 is 10 and 2/3. I hope this is correct.
