Question

Karen made 5 less than 4 times the number of free

throws that Kimi made. Write an expression in
simplest form that represents the total number of free
throws made by both players.

I don’t understand how to get my answer

Answer 1

5x-5

Explanation:

from the question, it can be determined that karen makes 4x-5 (x representing the amount of free throws made by kimi). since the question is asking you to find the total or sum of their free throws, you add 4x-5 and x to get the answer above. hope that helps!
