The given equation is 
We need to solve the equation for q.
<u>Value of q:</u>
The value of q can be determined by solving the equation for q.
Thus, subtracting both sides of the equation by r, we get;
Now, dividing both sides of the equation by b, we have;
Simplifying the terms, we get;
Therefore, the value of q is 
Hence, Option B is the correct answer.
Answer: I think -131
Step-by-step explanation:
Seven halves would equal to 3.5 wholes. What you do is divide 7 by 2 to find out how many wholes their are.
-8a-3b+6b-5a+9b= -13a-18b
-8a-5a=-13a
3b+6b+9b=18b

Note that the problem states that you only need to check the solution she got for x...so we don't have to worry about y in this case. (YAY)
To verify MaryJo's answer, simply solve the equation for x:
3x - 2 = -x - 6
3x (+ x) - 2 = -x (+ x) - 6
4x - 2 = -6
4x - 2 (+ 2) = -6 (+ 2)
4x = -4
4x/4 = -4/4
x = -1
Since this conforms to MaryJo's answer, she did indeed find the correct solution for x.
