The answer is 2x-22. The first thing you do is distribute I distributed the six to the X and -3 leaving me with 6X -18 and then you distribute the negative42DX and the one leaving you with negative 4X minus 4 . you are then left with an equation that is 6X -18 -4X -4. you come by in the like terms 6x and -4x and -q8 and -4. 6-4 is two leaving you with 2X and -18-4 is -22. that is why the answer is 2X -22( sorry for such a long explanation) i hope you get the point. if you need help just let me know.

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

9 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the group of men remains the same, number of hours is proportional to number of radios.

1300/26 = 450/h

h = 26 * 450 / 1300 = 9 hours
