Xian = 56 stamps + 12 per month : 12m + 56
kai = 80 stamps + 8 per month : 8m + 80
when will they have same number of stamps ? set them equal.
m = number of months
12m + 56 = 8m + 80
12m - 8m = 80 - 56
4m = 24
m = 24/4
m = 6.....at 6 months, they will have the same number of stamps.
12m + 56 = 12(6) + 56 = 128
8m + 80 = 8(6) + 80 = 128
They will both have 128 stamps

Answer:
63 sandwiches
Step-by-step explanation:
Pete and his friend Danny volunteered to bring sandwiches for lunch at a homeless shelter
They brought 7 loaves of bread
Each loaves have 18 slices
They used 2 slices each to make the sandwich
The first step is to calculate the total number of slices
Sinces 7 loaves of bread are used and each of them contain 18 slices then, the total number of slices can be calculated as follows
= 7 ×18
= 126 slices
Therefore since 2 slices of bread is used to make one sandwich then, the number of sandwiches that was made can be calculated as follows
= 126/2
= 63
Hence 63 sandwiches were made for the shelter
9x-(2x+8)
Distribute the - to both 2x and 8
9x-2x-8
simplify
7x-8
