Answer:
7 in both boxes
Step-by-step explanation:
In the picture, it shows
4 (x - 3) = 20
and then it shows
4 (x) - 4 (3) = 20
so practically you separate the x and 3 and put them in parentheses and then put a 4 next to both of them.
It should be the same as your question.
7 x (8 - 3)
and then separate 8 and 3 and put a 7 next to both of them.
( 7 x 8) - ( 7 x 3)
Hope it helps and have a great day! =D

The amount of drinks is a linear function of the number of drinks. The maximum amount that can be purchased is 100 soft drinks.
Let
amount of drinks
number of drinks
For drinks not more than 50
For drinks more than 50.
For a purchase of $85, it means that:
So, we solve for x in both equations.
Collect like terms
Divide through by 0.8
--- approximated
Collect like terms
Divide by 0.7
By comparing both values:
Hence, the maximum amount that can be purchased is 100
