Answer 1

Answer: 18 days

Step-by-step explanation:

10 + 3x = 4x - 8

you see this? pretty cool setup here

ok

so now lets combine like terms. do the opposite on both sides. whats the opposite of 4x? -4x so lets subtract 4x from both sides

10-x=-8

ok now add 8 to both sides

18 - x = 0

x = 18
