Answer:

x = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{1}{2} (x + 8) - 16 =  - 4

\frac{1}{2} x + 4 - 16 =  - 4

\frac{1}{2} x + 4 = 12

\frac{1}{2} x = 8

x = 16

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{1}{2}(x + 8 ) - 16 = - 4\\\\\frac{1}{2}*x + 8*\frac{1}{2} - 16 = -4\\\\\frac{1}{2}x + 4 - 16 = -4\\\\\frac{1}{2}x  -12 = -4

Add 12 to both sides

\frac{1}{2}x = -4 + 12\\\\\frac{1}{2}x = 8\\

Multiply both sides by 2

x = 8*2\\\\x = 16

Problem 3: Let x = price of bag of pretzels Let y = price of box of granola bars  
We have Lesley's purchase: 4x+2y=13.50
 And Landon's: 1x+5y=17.55 
 We can use the elimination method. Let's negate Landon's purchase by multiplying by -1. -1x-5y=-17.55 
 We add this four times to Lesley's purchase to eliminate the x variable.
 2y-20y=13.50-70.2
 -18y=-56.7
 y = $3.15 = Price of box of granola bars
 
 Plug back into Landon's purchase to solve for pretzels.
 x+5*3.15=17.55
 x+15.75=17.55
 x = $1.80 = price of bag of pretzels
  
 Problem 4.
 Let w = number of wood bats sold
 Let m = number of metal bats sold
 
 From sales information we have: w + m = 23
 24w+30m=606 
 Substitution works well here. Solve for w in the first equation, w = 23 - m, and plug this into the second. 
 24*(23-m)+30m=606
 552-24m+30m=606
 6m=54
 m=9 = number of metal bats sold
 Therefore since w = 23-m, w = 23-9 = 14. 14 wooden bats were sold.
