Question:
What is 3(x + 2) - 2(x + 1)?
Steps:
When you solve this type of equation always use the distributive property formula to solve this equation!
Formula: a(b + c) = ab + ac
So, what is 3(x + 2) ?
Also, what is -2(x + 1)?
Then, put it back into the equation for you to solve this problem.
So, this would be the new equation:
3x + 6 - 2x - 2
Then, what you want to do is put variables next to each other and the numbers next to each other so it will be easier to simplify:
3x - 2x + 6 - 2
Then, simplify:
x + 4 is the answer!
Since 3x - 2x = x and 6 - 2 = 4
Hope that helped!!

There are 10000 bugs and you add 15 bugs to it.
10,000+15= 10,015
The total is 10,015 bugs
There were already 10,000 bugs and 15 bugs joined them.
Which makes it an addition statement
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
X= number of hours would it take Jason to wash the van by himself.
2x=number of hours would it take Wendy to wash the van by herserlf.
<span>we calcaulate the fraction of work by Jason during one hour </span>
x hours-----------------------------1 work
1 hour---------------------- fraction of work during one hour.
fraction of work during one hour=(1 hour * 1work) / x hours=1/x
we calculate the fraction of work by Wendy during one hour.
2x hours-----------------------------1 work
1 hour---------------------- fraction of work during one hour.
fraction of work during one hour=(1 hour * 1work) / 2x hours=1/2x
We can suggest this equation:
2 hours(fraction of work by Jason during one hour + fraction of work by Wendy during one hour)=1 work
2(1/x + 1/2x)=1
least common multiple=2x
2(2+1)=2x
2(3)=2x
6=2x
x=6/2
x=3
answer: 3 hours would ti take Jason to wash the van by himself.
