Saturday: \(x\) books sold Sunday: 2 more books than Saturday. Or, 2 more than \(x\)... what does that mean in equation form? They want the total of Saturday \(and\) Sunday, so Saturday + Sunday = ?

OpenStudy (emmily_cool):

i think it is 2(x+2)

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

Er, no. Sorry.

OpenStudy (emmily_cool):

i am supposed to figure out how to right the equation

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

(Saturday) \(x\) + (Sunday) "2 more than \(x\)" = ?

OpenStudy (emmily_cool):

2x+2

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

wait

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

Let me reread that

OpenStudy (emmily_cool):

2x x + 2 2x+2 2(x+2)

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

You got it right. I am sorry

OpenStudy (emmily_cool):

those are the answers my computer was being being weird

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

I misread the problem. 2x+2 is correct

OpenStudy (emmily_cool):

thank you for your help

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

No problem :)
