Let x be equal to the number of drinks Yasmine consumed.
Jose had 2 times that drink so his number of consumed drink would be represented by 2x.
Sally had 3 fewer drink than Jose so her number of consumed drinks would be represented by 2x-3.
Altogether, the three of them consumed 72 drinks so your equation would be:
x+2x+(2x-3)=72
add like terms together:
5x-3=72
have the term with x be alone on one side of the equation, in this case by adding three to both sides:
5x=75
now divide both sides by five for the value of x and your answer is.....
x=15

Answer:
C. 0 6 10
Step-by-Step-Explanation:
the number on the left of the indicated operation is the original set
the number '2' next to R shows that you need to multiply certain numbers by 2
the subscript on the R's shows which row the multiplication needs to be done on...
so in this case, leave the second row alone: 1 3 4
but multiply the first row by 2: 0 6 10
7x - (3x + 7)....not simplified
7x - 3x - 7 =
4x - 7....simplified
