shtirl [24]3 years ago

Answer:

Each friend ate 4 tacos.

Step-by-step explanation:

"4 of his friends ate s tacos" is unclear. I assume it should be

"4 of his friends ate s tacos each."

total tacos = 2 + 4s = 18

4s = 16

s = 4

His four friends ate a total of 16 tacos, each friend eating 4 tacos.

Ricky's reason, i.e., that 6s = 18, is incorrect.

6s = 4s+2s, where 4s is what his friends ate in total.

That implies that Ricky ate 2s tacos, instead of 2 tacos. If 2s = 2 then s = 1, but then 6s ≠ 18.
