Jackie filled the blue water balloon with 12.25 ounces and the red water balloon with 5.5 ounces of water. how much more water was in the blue balloon than the red one?

Follow these steps using the algebra tiles to solve the equation −5x + (−2) = −2x + 4. 1. add 5 positive x-tiles to both sides and create zero pairs. 2. add 4 negative unit tiles to both sides and create zero pairs. 3. divide the unit tiles evenly among the x-tiles. x =
