Step-by-step explanation:
3x + 1 = -14
3x = -14 - 1
3x = -15
x= -15÷3
x= -5
? + 8 = 11
Subtract 8 from both sides.
? = 3
HG = 8
? + 6 = 9
Subtract 6 from both sides.
? = 3
HI = 3
The minimum sum is 3 and the maximum is 11. So there are 9 different possible sums.
There are 30 ways to get these 9 different sums.
The table below shows all outcomes.
1 2 3 4 5 6
———————————-
1 | X 3 4 5 6 7
2 | 3 X 5 6 7 8
3 | 4 5 X 7 8 9
4 | 5 6 7 X 9 10
5 | 6 7 8 9 X 11
6 | 7 8 9 10 11 X
The answer is b because 5*20=100
The answer to the question is:
3x + 3y
