Shele bought a box of eggs
she wrote this equation to show the number of eggs in one box
e = 6
if shele bought 4 boxes of eggs, which equation would represent the number of eggs she has now?
a.
4 × e = 24
b.
4 × e = 12
c.
4 × e = 6
d.
4 × e = 4

3. (5x + 1) - (-10x + 6)

simplify the answer choice. combine like terms. remember to distribute the negative to the terms inside the second parenthesis. also remember that two negatives = one positive, and one of each sign = negative.

- (-10x + 6) = + 10x - 6

simplify. combine like terms:

5x + 1 + 10x - 6

5x + 10x + 1 - 6

15x - 5

∴ it is your answer
