First simplify like terms (things with the same letter):
3g + 7g + 8 = -10 + g
10g + 8 = -10 + g
Next we should take g off both sides:
9g + 8 = -10
Next isolate 9g by taking 8 off both sides:
9g = -18
Next divide both sides by 9 to find the value of g:
g = -2
A quick way to answer all 1-10 is to multiply the starting price by 1.##. So for number 1 the equation would be 18 x 1.07 which equals $19.26. Question 2 would be
14 x 1.20 which equals $16.80. I think you got it from here.

Answer: 8</h3>
Explanation:
The rule says "whatever x is, add 1 to it to get y"
So for instance, if x = 3, then y = x+1 = 3+1 = 4
Now if x = 7, then y = x+1 = 7+1 = 8
What does > mean?
10x + 16 ≥ 6x + 20
Subtract both sides by 16
10x ≥ 6x + 4
Subtract both sides by 6x
4x ≥ 4
Divide both sides by 4
x ≥ 1
I believe this is your answer good luck!!
