Amy and Stephanie were playing a number game. Amy picked a number and told Stephanie that if she added 8 to the number and multiplied the sum by 3, it would equal 9. Which equation could Stephanie use to find the number, x?

    3 + (x + 8) = 9

    3(x) + 8 = 9

    8(x + 3) = 9

    3(x + 8) = 9

igreen · Answer

First you have to add 8 to the number..then you multiply 3..which one tells you to do that?

Please don't bribe for answers.

So, we have x.
Add 8 to x: 8+x
Then multiply the sum by 3.
The sum would be (8+x), so 3(8+x).

Answer: 3(x+8)=9

Samantha donated 9 T-shirts to charity and has 15 left. Which equation could be used to find x, the number of T-shirts Samantha had originally?

    x - 15 = 9
    x - 9 = -15
    x + 9 = 15
    x + 15 = -9

Please post your question in a new post @HappySprout  (:

igreen · Answer

@kittiwitti1 Yes, but someone can easily just take your answer and not read your explanation. Give the explanation and let the asker get the answer on his/her own.
