Jeremy should use coupon 2 because when you multiply both the sweaters (36) by .25 you get 9, and then you subtract 36 by 9 which is 27.
But when you use coupon 1 you multiply 18 by .40 which is 7.20 where you subtract 18 by 7.20 which is 10.80. You then add 10.80 with 18 which is 28.80.
I don't even know what the question is but I found the same problem and this was the answer
The correct answer would be C. Hope that helps.
Answer: If you are suppose to write an algebraic expression it is: 5 - 2x = 3x - 5
If you are suppose to solve the answer is:
5-2x=3x-5
-2x=3x-10
-5x=-10
x=2
