A. 5x - 2 + x = x - 4

B. 5x + x = x - 4

How can we get Equation B from Equation A?

Choose 1

(Choice A) Add/subtract a quantity to/from only one side

(Choice B) Add/subtract the same quantity to/from both sides

(Choice C) Rewrite one side (or both) using the distributive property

(Choice D) Rewrite one side (or both) by combining like terms

ADD/SUBTRACT A QUANTITY TO/FROM ONLY ONE SIDE

And part 2: is No

Step-by-step explanation:

da freeck kinda math is this just drop out

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of red paint to blue paint is always 9/7. that means that, whatever x's value, (4x+12)/(4x-4) has that same ratio. so, set up an equation and cross-multiply to solve for x:

9/7 = (4x+12)/(4x-4)

9(4x-4) = 7(4x+12)

36x - 36 = 28x + 84

8x - 36 = 84

8x = 120

x = 15
