Answer:
C seems right
Step-by-step
seems more work then needs be but 7+5= 12 and she originally had 23. so the equation of adding the 7+5 would just be adding up the ones removed together then adding the -23 to the equation is how many Amy had to begin with. so it would be <u><em>23-7+5 </em></u>= 12. others dont seem right since when you add () to an equation that means your multiplying and you wouldn't be multiplying here and for D to be right it needs to be switched around or you'd end up with a - number and she wouldn't have a - number of blocks. just divide up a problem if need be and break it down to smaller parts to make it easier to deal with.
You should first of all distribute and combine like terms on both sides. You should subtract 6x from both sides. Once you have done that, you should add 80 to both sides and divide by 6 to get your answer as a simplified fraction of x=-2/3. The correct answer is b.
