The answer is 6.

THey are using distributive property.

6 x (8-3) = 30. 6x5=30.

6 x 8 equals 48. 6 x 3 equals 18. 48-18 equals 30.

Please tell me if I am wrong, and hope it helps!

4x= 3x +13

4x -3x= 13

x= 13

Total number of sweets

= 4x +2x +3x

= 9x (simplify)

= 9(13) (subst. x=13)

= 117 sweets

A clothing store sold 4 times as many sweaters as coats. The difference in the sales was 300. How many of each were sold?

slava [35]

Sweater = 400
coats = 100
difference= 300
in an equation it would be
4x-x=300
so
3x=300
x=100
sweaters= 4x= 400
coats= x= 100
