So first you distribute the 5 to the x and the +2 and get
5x+10=3(x+8)
then you distribute the 3 to the other x and the +8 and get
5x+10=3x+24
subtract 3x from both sides
2x+10=24
subtract 10 from both sides and get
2x=14
divide both sides by 2 and get
x=7
1. 5.50 + 0.15 * 45 = 12.25
2. 4 + 0.20 * 45 = 13
So the first option is slightly better, you can save 13-12.25= $0.75.
