Amber spent $36 for shoes. This was $12 less than twice what she spent for a shirt. The equation 2x - 12 = 36 can be used to find the cost of the shirt (x). How much did Amber spend on the shirt?
A) $20
B) $24
C) $28
D) $32​

Answer 1

that would "B"

Explanation:

Amber spent $24 on the shirt.

2x − 12 = 36

2x = 48

x = 24

Answer 2

B)

Explanation:

We know that solving the equation given will give us the price of the shirt

2x - 12 = 36 //Add 12 on both sides

2x = 48 //Divide by 2 on both sides

x = 24
