X = 3 is the answer plug it in
The distributive property. You need to district it's 7 to x and -1.
Do distributive property to get rid of the parenthesis
3x + 3 = -2x + 2 + 6
combine like terms
3x + 3 = -2x + 8
move the -2x over by addition
5x + 3 = 8
move the 3 over by subtraction
5x = 5
now divide by 5
x = 1
Hello,
to find the total cost (c) of the colored strips we have to multiply the number of strips (n) by the cost of each color strip (99¢), that as an algebraic function is:

[¢]
Now, if we use 3 solid color strips, that means that we use 4 patterned strips, so:
Answer: c=n*99 and Cost per curtain= $7.97
Answer:32-24n
Step-by-step explanation:
Take 8 and 4 and multiply it and you get 32. Take 8 and 3 multiply or add 8 three times and you get 24 and also add the n so it’s 24n since the n goes no where, and you can’t really subtract a number with a letter with a number or a number with a different letter, you can only subtract or add it if it has the same letter on the number. Hope that helps.
