These are the equations given:
31=B+J
B=2J+4

So you substitute B=2J+4 into 31=B+J

31=2J+4+J

Solve

31-4=3J+4-4
27=3J
27/3=3J/3
9=J

Jake has 9 cd's.

Equations::

b + j = 31 CDs

b = 2j+4

Substitute for "b" and solve for "j"::

2j+4 + j = 31

3j = 27

j = 9 (# of CDs Jake has)

In the triangle below what is the approximate value of x

sveta [45]

You can solve using the pythagorean theorem which is

a^2+b^2=c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse in a right triangle.

12^2+x^2=24^2
144+x^2=576
x^2=432
x =20.78 (approximately)

Combine like terms:
 $3y + 5z + 8y - 3z = (3y + 8y) + (5z - 3z) = 11y + 2z$

So you would choose A confidently
