3x +2= 5x
-3x
2= 2x
/2
1= x
So first I got all the x’s on one side and the whole numbers on the other side. So we had 2 on one side and 2x on the other. From there we divided by the number of x’s which was 2 so we can get one x only. So 2/2= 1 so x =1
X + 2y = -4
-x -x
2y = -x - 4
Divide all by 2
y = -x/2 - 2
y = (-1/2)x - 2
6t + 5j= 34
2t + 3j = 16
12t + 10 j = 68
12t + 18j = 96
-8j = -28
j = 3.5
jelly beans= 3.5 and trail mix = 2.75
54•2=108
36•1=36
108+36=144
14•6=84
144-88=$56
Answer is $56.00
