Solve the equation <br> 5(x+4)+52= -4x

Maru [420]

Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: 5(x+4)+52=-4x

Distributive Property: 5x+20+52=-4x

Combine like terms: 5x+72=-4x

Subtract 5x on both sides: 72=-9x

Divide both sides by -9: -8=x

Flip the equation around: x=-8

Therefore, x=-8

Pls answer fast my teacher is waiting!

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

For company A, y = 24x + 42

For company B, y = 28x + 25

Step-by-step explanation:

x is the number of containers

y is the total cost

For company A, y = 24x + 42

For company B, y = 28x + 25

For the cost of both companies to be the same, then

24x + 42 = 28x + 25

28x - 24x = 42 - 25

4x = 17

x = 4.25

Mr Lycan would have to order about 4 containers so the cost would be the same from each company
