Answer: x + 9x + (9x - 7)
Simplified: 19x - 7
Step-by-step explanation: We see that Abby already starts off with x dolls. We put a 9 infront of the x for the second part of the expression because Lauren has 9 times as many dolls as Abby. Since Betsy has 7 less than Lauren, we take away 7 from 9x. We put that part in parenthesis because that part needs to be done first before we add everything together. Once simplified, we have "19x - 7". (I really tried my best so I hope this is the correct answer!)

Answer:
x = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to solve for x in 3*(2x + 5) = 3x + 4x
First simplify.
3*(2x + 5) = 7x
Next, distribute the 3.
3*2x + 3*5 = 7x
6x + 15 = 7x
15 = 7x - 6x
15 = x

Answer:
23) x= 3, y = 4
24) Any (x,y) values where x = 1.5 - 2y
Step-by-step explanation:
For the first system(23), it goes like this
[1 2 | 7]
[2 1 | 8]
We need to do L2 = L2 - 2L1, so now it is
[1 2 | 7]
[0 -3 |-6]
So, now we have:
-3y = -6 *(-1)
3y = 6
y = 2
x + 2y = 7
x + 4 = 7
x = 3
Now for system 24, we have:
[-1 2 | 1.5]
[2 -4| 3]
We do L2 = L2 + 2L1, so we have:
[-1 2 | 1.5]
[0 0| 0]
So there are infinite solutions for this system. The solution for this system will be each (x,y) pair where x = 1.5 - 2y.
