Please see below solution:
Let x = number of books that Bryan reads2x for amanda = Amanda 3x - 4 for Colin Amanda = 5/8(Bryan + Colin)2x = 5/8(x+3x-4)2x = 5/8(4x-4)
[16x = 5(4x-4)]816x = 20x - 20Subtract 20x from each side-4x =-20-4x/-4= -20/-4 divide -4 to eliminate the -4 in -4xx = 5
Therefore:
Bryan reads 5 books a month.
Since Amanda reads twice as many books a Bryan read so Amanda 10 books a month.
And Colin 11 books a month. 3(5) - 4 = 11
The answer is: 2(x−6)(x+2)<span>

Just divide all the numbers and u should get your answer.
Answer with step-by-step explanation:
Yes, it is possible to have more that one (x,y) pair because of the distributive property.
6x + 4y = 34. If this is the case, we have to find 2 numbers that sum up to 34.
5x - 27 = 15. If we are going to calculate this equation, you need to reverse the equation. 15 + 27 = 42 = 5x. If 42 = 5x, we have to divide 42 by 5, which is 8.4
