To reason about the value of x in ¼(12x - 8) = 10 , Joy and Paulo each rewrite the equation. Joy rewrites the equation as 3x -2 = 10. Paulo rewrites the equation as 12x - 8 = 40. What are their strategies? Explain your reasoning.

38.5

step-by-step explanation:

lets say, first number = r

second number = 3r+7

total = 49

(r)+(3r+7)= 49

4r+7 = 49

4r = 42

r = 42/4

r= 10.5

3r+7 = 3(10.5)+7 = 38.5
