Answer: 5

Step-by-step explanation:

x+3x−2=18

x+3x+−2=18

(x+3x)+(−2)=18(Combine Like Terms)

4x+−2=18

4x−2=18

Step 2: Add 2 to both sides.

4x−2+2=18+2

4x=20

Step 3: Divide both sides by 4.

x=5

If 1 cup of chocolate chips weighs about 6 ounces

The recipe calls for 3 1/4 cups of chocolate chips.

We need to multiply 6 by 3 which is 18 ounces plus the 1/4 which is 6 times 1/4 = 1.5 ounces
