adelyn_helps · Answer

I medaled and fanned you @ksanka

anonymous · Answer

The answer is A

ninjaslice · Answer

Due to  since there is parentheses yyou have to multiply whatever is in the  parentheses. So you need to do    8*x  and  8*2  Which then equals   24 when those 2 sums are added. so for   8*1  and  8*2 added together that is   24. hope this helps.
