Answer 5

first thing's first. which one do you think it is and why?

Answer 6

B bc im not good in math :/

Answer 7

Lol okay give me a sec to work it out :)

Answer 8

hmmm this is a tough one I know we have to get x by itself so we'd add 6 to both sides then divide 4 (or multiply .25) to both sides which would leave us with x+10=3(x-2)\4

Answer 9

Okay........

Answer 10

what do you think we should do next?

Answer 11

Um......... divide 4 from both sides?

Answer 12

:) I did that what do you think 3(x-2)/4 would be?

Answer 13

Idk!!! I'm so stupid!!!!

Answer 14

neither do I actually... I remember they taught me this trick where you can just multiply 1/4 and flip it so it would be 4/1 or something. Ya know what why don't we try plugging in all four of your choices and see which one works then we can reverse the problem and see what we did wrong?
