Answer:

c = 7p

Step-by-step explanation:

If 1 person buys the platter, the bill is c = 1 × $7.

If 2 people buy the platter, the bill is c = 2 × $7.

If 3 people buy the platter, the bill is c = 3 × $7.

(Do you see the pattern yet?)

If "p" people buy the platter, the bill is c = p × $7.

We ususally say "c is in dollars" and drop the "$" sign from the equation. When p is multiplied by 7, we conventionally write it as 7p.

... c = 7p

2 (x + 4) = 2 (-8 - x) - 2x
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

2[x + 4] = 2[-8 + -1x] + -2x

Reorder the terms:

2[4 + x] = 2[-8 + -1x] + -2x

[4 * 2 + x * 2] = 2[-8 + -1x] + -2x

[8 + 2x] = 2[-8 + -1x] + -2x

8 + 2x = [-8 * 2 + -1x * 2] + -2x

8 + 2x = [-16 + -2x] + -2x

Combine like terms: -2x + -2x = -4x

8 + 2x = -16 + -4x

Solving

8 + 2x = -16 + -4x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '4x' to each side of the equation.

8 + 2x + 4x = -16 + -4x + 4x

Combine like terms: 2x + 4x = 6x

8 + 6x = -16 + -4x + 4x

Combine like terms: -4x + 4x = 0

8 + 6x = -16 + 0

8 + 6x = -16

Add '-8' to each side of the equation.

8 + -8 + 6x = -16 + -8

Combine like terms: 8 + -8 = 0

0 + 6x = -16 + -8

6x = -16 + -8

Combine like terms: -16 + -8 = -24

6x = -24

Divide each side by '6'.

x = -4

Simplifying

x = -4
