The axioms in addition help in developing theorems about multiplication because multiplication, in simple terms, repeated addition.
As an example,
This addition operation
3 + 3 + 3 + 3 = 12
can be expressed as a multiplication operation
3 x 4 = 12

T-Shirts $ More Shop: Final cost = 2m + 12
m = mug
You Say It, We Print It: Final Cost = 5m
If you buy 5 mugs from both place:
2 * 5 = 10
10 + 12 = 22
$22 for T-Shirts & More
5 * 5 = $25
$25 from You Say It, We Print It
D. T-Shirts & More is the better buy if you buy more than 4 mugs.
31 is g = -19
32 is x = -9
34 is w = -11
31:
g-(-7) = -12
g+7 = -12
g = -19
32:
-5x = 45 divide by -5
x = -9
33 looks like it has a print error so I can’t figure that out, I don’t know where the |-2| is supposed to be
34:
(w-1)/4 = -3 multiply by 4
w - 1 = -12
w = -11
