1. Expand
2x − 2 + 4 = 4x + 4
2. Simply
2x + 2 = 4x + 4
3. Subtract
2 = 4x + 4 - 2x
4. Simplify
2 = 2x + 4
5.Subtract
2 - 4 = 2x
6. Simplify
-2 = 2x
7. Divide both sides by
-1 = x
8.Switch sides.
x = -1
Answer:
x = 6/11
Step-by-step explanation:
2(-3x + 4 ) = 5x + 2
-6x + 8 = 5x + 2
- 2 - 2
-6x + 6 = 5x
+6x +6x
6 = 11x
/11 /11
6/11 = x
B would be the answer. hope it helps !
Answer:8 lilies and 12 tulips; total of 20 flowers.

I can solve with 2 methods:
I. Because the discount is 15 % of 18 $ , the price will be (100-15=85) 85 % of 18 $
18*85/100= 15,3 $ ( the sale price)
II. The discount is 15 % of 18$
15*18/100= 2,7$ ( the discount)
then I decrease it from the regularly price
18$-2,7$=15,3 $ (the sale price)
Personally I believe the first is an easier method.
I hope you understand and you can apply this in every similary problem.
