Since 4 balls of wool makes 8 knitted caps we'll find out how much caps each ball makes.
8/4 = 2
Each ball makes 2 caps.
6/2 = 3
Malcolm will need 3 balls of wool to make 6 knitted caps.
Answer:
-x-30
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>first you need to </em><em>distribute</em><em>:</em>
<em>3(x)+3(-6) -4(x)+ (-4)(3)</em>
<em>Then you </em><em>multiply:</em>
<em>3x+(-18)-4x+(-7)</em>
<em>then you </em><em>combine like terms:</em>
<em>3x-4x= -1x </em>
<em>-18+(-7)= -25</em>
<em>simplified:</em>
<u><em>-1x-30</em></u>
