You would have to solve for x by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.
So, x= -1/4
I’m pretty sure the answer is C
Answer:
-24 + 3b
Step-by-step explanation:
-3 times 8 - -3 times b
-24 - -3b
and leave it alone cause its not like terms
X = small boxes and y = large boxes
x + y = 17.....x = 17 - y
3x + 14y = 183
3(17 - y) + 14y = 183
51 - 3y + 14y = 183
-3y + 14y = 183 - 51
11y = 132
y = 132/11
y = 12 <=== large boxes (y) cost $ 12
x + y = 17
x + 12 = 17
x = 17 - 12
x = 5 <=== small boxes (x) cost $ 5
