Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
16 + (18 + 10) = (x + 18) + 10x
16 + 28 = (x + 18) + 10x Add like terms in the parentheses
44 = (x + 10x) + 18 Use the community property to regroup like
terms
44 = 11x + 18 Simply
<u>-18 = -18</u> Substract 18 from both side
26 = 11x Simply
<u>26</u> = <u>11x</u> Divide by 11
11 11
