Answer:  34 cookies baked last week

Step-by-step explanation:

138=4x-2

136=4x

34=x

Answer:

34 cookies!

Step-by-step explanation:

If we say the number of cookies that Desirae baked last week was 'x', we can make the following equation for how many she baked this week: 4x+2=138. Here are the following steps to solve for x:

x=34

Therefore she baked 34 cookies last week.
