Answer: 
or 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following expression:
You can follow these steps in order to simplify it:
1. You need to apply Distributive property:
2. And now you must add the like terms. Then:
Therefore you get the following answer:
or
S*x!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Product means multiply so 2,681 times 4 = 10,724
Its A.) because if you think of a bank it gains interest because you put it in the bank
Translating that problem into an equation with x as a variable we get 3x + x +10 = 22. Combine like terms to get 4x + 10 = 22. Subtract 10 on both sides to get 4x = 12. Divide by 4 on both sides to get x = 3.
Now to plug in. The first number was represented by 3x. So substituting 3 for the x we get 3(3) = 9. And again for the second number represented by x+10, 3+10 = 13.
Your numbers are 9 and 13. To check just add them together. 13 + 9 is 22, I'll save ya the effort.
