1. Collect like terms
(-1 - 39) + 6(-1 - 3x) - 2x
2. Simplify
-40 + 6(-1 - 3x) - 2x
3. Expand
-40 - 6 - 18x - 2x
4. Collect like terms
(-40 - 6) + (-18x - 2x)
5. Simplify
-46 - 20x

Antoine and Tess have a disagreement over how to compute a 15% gratuity on $46.00. Tess says, “It is easy to find 10% of 46 by moving the decimal point one place to the left to get $4.60. Do that twice. Then add the two amounts to get $4.60 + $4.60 = $9.20 for the 15% gratuity.” How should Antoine respond to Tess’s method?
