Add 1 on both sides, then multiply 2 on both sides as well
Left with 5x=20, divide 5
X=4
(2x+y) * 2 = 4x+2y |

Answer:
12 days
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up an equation with y = mx + b, where m is the rate and b is the y-intercept (starting value)
Let x represent how many days it takes and y represent how many pages he read:
445 = 24x + 157
Solve for x:
288 = 24x
12 = x
So, it will take him 12 days to finish the book
Answer:
-8x - 22
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Define
g(x) = -8x - 3
g(2) is x = 2
Step 2: Find g(2)
g(2) = -8(2) - 3
g(2) = -16 - 3
g(2) = -19
Step 3: Find g(x) + g(2)
-8x - 3 + -19
-8x - 3 - 19
-8x - 22
