Explanation:

I see only 2 stories and equations.

a.

6(x + 3) = 24

is for the first story (6 show tickets and snacks).

3(x + 6) = 24

is for the second story (juice for 3 friends).

b.

in the first story it is the price of one ticket to the show.

in the second story it is the original amount of juice each friend gets before adding 6 oz.

c. and d.

6(x + 3) = 24

6x + 18 = 24

6x = 6

x = 1

each ticket to the show was $1.

3(x + 6) = 24

3x + 18 = 24

3x = 6

x = 2

each of the 3 friends got first 2 oz of juice, before they each got additional 6 oz. so, ultimately, each friend got 8 oz.

Answer:

X=. 1. X=. 2

Explanation:

The first story (movie theater) has the equation 6(x+3)= 24. The equation for the juice story is 3(x+6)=24 . The x in the move theater story is the cost of each ticket. The x in the juice story is the amount of juice poured to each friend originally (before the extra 6 ounces). The solution to the movie theater story is 6((1)+3)=24. So x is one is the first story.In the juice story, 3((2)+6)= 24. So x is two. The solution tells me that in the movie theater story that each ticket cost 1 dollar. In the second story, it tells me that 2 ounces of juice where poured to each freind originally. So each freind got a total of 8 ounces of juice.
