Answer: The equation is 2x + 8 = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of blue beads be x

Since Charlotte has 8 more red beads, their can be represented as: x + 8

There are a total of 30 beads.

The equation can now be written as:

x + (x + 8) = 30

2x + 8 = 30

2x= 30-8

2x = 22

x = 22/2 = 11

Blue beads are 11

Red = 8+11 = 19
