Answer:

Like terms are terms that have the same variable. For example, 8x and 2x are like terms. They have the same variable and that makes them like. If we happened to change 2x to 2s, then the two terms 8x and 2s would be unlike. All you do to solve is add normally UNLESS they are unlike in which you have to keep it the same.

What is the answer to 6(1+8n)=-39+3n

MissTica

For this case we must simplify the following expression:

$6 (1 + 8n) = - 39 + 3n$

We apply distributive property on the left side of the equation:

$6 * 1 + 6 * 8n = -39 + 3n\\6 + 48n = -39 + 3n$

We subtract 3n from both sides of the equation:

$6 + 48n-3n = -39\\6 + 45n = -39$

We subtract 6 from both sides of the equation:

$45n = -39-6\\45n = -45$

We divide between 45 on both sides of the equation:

$n = \frac {-45} {45}\\n = -1$

Answer:

$n = -1$

Rhonda bought five shirts from a

Answer:

Option C $10+5x=24+3x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ------> the cost of each shirt

we know that

The cost of 5 shirts plus $10 (amount of money that would remain) must be equal to the cost of 3 shirts plus $24 (amount of money that would remain). Considering that the cost of the shirts is the same

The linear equation that represent this scenario is

$10+5x=24+3x$

Solve for x

$5x-3x=24-10$
