Answer:

X= -44

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply parenthesis by 2. Distribute 2 through the parenthesis. Collect like terms. Calculate the difference. Move variable to the left side and change it's sign. Move constant to the right side and change it's sign. Collect like terms. Add the numbers. Change the signs on both sides of the equation. Then you'll get X= -44

Answer:

44/7

Step-by-step explanation:

First, carry out the indicated multiplication, using the Distributive Property of Multiplication:

-4x + 2(3x – 1) - 12 = 3x + 30 becomes:

-4x + 6x – 2 - 12 = 3x + 30

Next, combine all the x terms and all the constants. We get:

10x - 14 = 3x + 30, or 7x = 44

Dividing both sides by 7 yields x = 44/7.

Inga [223]

Answer: 22

Step-by-step explanation:

She sold two tubs of Oatmeal Raisins and it's 6 dollars a tub so we can do 6*2 or 6+6 (doesn't matter). We get $12. Then, she also sells 2 tubs of Peanut Butter, and since it's $5 a tub, then we do 5*2 or 5+5 to get 10. We add 12 and 10 (12+10) and get 22.

I'm not sure if this is right because you added $22, $24, $20, and $11 and I'm not sure what the purposes of those are.
