Alright. So for:
a) 4(x+7)+3(x+5) Here we need to distribute the number outside of the parenthesis to the terms inside. So after distributing, we get 4x+28+3x+15. Then simplify this equation to 7x+43.
b) 3(2a+4b)+9(3a-2b) Same here. We distribute the number outside of the parenthesis to the terms inside. After distributing, we get 6a+12b+27a-18b. Then simplify to get 33a-6b.
c) 2(3u-5)-3(2u+1) As expected, same here. We distribute the number outside of the parenthesis. But here, we have a negative. Remember to distribute that as well. So we get 6u-10-6u-3. Then we simplify and get -13.
d) b(-5v-4)-2b(v+4) -_- Getting a bit boring... We distribute the variable from outside the parenthesis into the terms in the parenthesis. We get -5bv-4b-2bv-8b. Then simplify to get -3bv-12b.
**If you don't understand distributing, just let me know!
13x=65
65/13=5
So x equals 5

From the analysis attached to the question, we can solve this equation by subtracting 5 from both sides:
7 total cups of flour divided by 2.33 cups of flour needed per batch of 24 muffins equals three batches, then multiply total number of batches by number of muffins in each batch- 3x24- gives you a total of 72 muffins
