I hope you understood the procedure, please let me know if you have any doubts
I think the correct answer is 64
There was 16 bagels, and now there is 0 bagels. So what you do is subtract 16 from 16 to get 0.
For b on the first paper you will start with the distribution property and multiply both x and 2 by 3 because they are in the ()
now you have 3x+ 6=x-18
from here you can subtract x from both sides
2x+6=-18
next subtract 6 from both sides
2x=-24
divide both sides by 2...
x=-12
hope this helped
