Hi Grant.
(3x + 5) + (2x - 9) is what we'll start with. Considering we cannot combine variables with numbers, we can only combine like-terms.
3x + 2x; 5 - 9; we result with: 5x - 4
Now, we are left with (5x - 4) - (4x + 3)
Remember to distribute the negative sign to everything to the right.
(5x - 4) - 4x - 3. We are now able to simplify and solve for our answer.
5x - 4x; -4 - 3; we result with x - 7.
Your answer is A.) x - 7.
I hope this helps!
First do .80 x 10 to get $8 then add 8 to 5.50 to get $13.50
4/5 is in simplest form because you cannot find a common number that is divisible by both 4 and 5. Thus, you would leave your answer as 4/5... simplest form.
