16 red cars and 12 black cars. He put half of each colour in each box. Therefore he would put 8 red and 6 black in each box. 8 red + 6 black is 14. Therefore he would have 14 cars in each box.
14.
Since both of the numbers have a variable which is x ready to be multiplied, there is no expression leading to the variable therefore you will add normally but you will need to put the missing variable which needs to be multiplied. So overall you can just add and once you get your variable you can be abe to multiply and get your final answer.
Hope this helps
Answer: x=68/11 and y=-72/11
Steps:
2(x+4y=-20)
2x+8y=-40
2x - 3y = 32
- 2x + 8y = -40
-11y=72
y=-72/11
x + 4(-72/11) = -20
x - 288/11 = -20
x=68/11
