Deirdre comes across the equation below on her math homework.

–4(5 – 7) = x

Deirdre correctly solves for the value of x. What answer does she find?

A) x = –48

B) x = –8

C) x = 8

D) x = 48

walter needs to make at least 5 more cookies but no more than 40. 5 ≥ x ≥ 40;

step-by-step explanation:

walter has to make a minimum of 20 cookies. he already has 15 cookies made, so he must make 5 more to meet the minimum.

the maximum amount of cookies he can make is 55. he already has 15, so he has to make no more than 40 more cookies to meet the maximum.

126 maybe. sorry
