x + 50 = 120
50x = 120
50 + 120 = x
x - 120 = 50

x/3 = 8; x = 30

Answer 1

Let's analyze each question one by one:

1. Jalen is saving for a new tablet: Jalen needs to save a total of $120 and has already saved $50. The equation to represent how much more he needs to save (x) is: $$x+50=120$$ Correct answer: x + 50 = 120

2. Isabella bought packs of stickers: Each pack costs $3, and she spent a total of $18 on stickers. The equation that represents the number of packs (x) she bought is: $$3x=18$$ Correct answer: 3x = 18

3. Byron's savings account: Byron spent $40 and has $80 left. Let x be the amount of money he had before spending. The equation to find how much he had is: $$x-40=80$$ Rearranging gives: $$x=80+40=120$$ Correct answer: x = $120

4. Zayan brought Oreos: Zayan shares Oreos with 8 friends, giving each friend 3 Oreos. The equation representing the total number of Oreos (x) Zayan brings is: $$3x=8$$ This seems to be a bit off since he should have given away a total of $3\times 8=24$ Oreos. The equation based on number of Oreos is: $$x=3\times 8=24.$$ But the closest answer available that matches $3\times x=24$ is: $$x/3=8;x=24$$ Correct answer: x/3 = 8; x = 24

So, the correct answers are:

1. $x+50=120$
2. $3x=18$
3. $x=120$
4. $x/3=8;x=24$
