Answer:
Ashley=13 messages
Frank=20 messages
Chang=2x+14=40 messages
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of texts sent by each person;
Ashley=x
Frank=x+7
Chang=2(x+7)=2x+14
Total number of text messages=Number sent by Ashley+Number sent by Frank+Number sent by Chang
where;
Total number of text messages=73
Replacing;
73= x+(x+7)+(2x+14)
x+x+2x+7+14=73
4x+21=73
4x=73-21
4x=52
x=52/4
x=13
Ashley=13 messages
Frank=x+7=13+7=20 messages
Chang=2x+14=(2×13)+14=40 messages
X = 213.075
First you have to get rid of the 4 and since it’s multiplying you to the opposite and that’s dividing.
-3.7 divided by 4 = -0.925
X - 214 = -0. 925
Then you add 214 to -0.925 and get 213.075
To do this, we're going to use the order of operations (PEMDAS):
P - Parentheses
E - Exponents
M - Multiplication
D - Division
A - Addition
S - Subtraction
First let's do parentheses, there isn't anythig in parentheses we need to simplify, so we can skip this step.
Next let's look for exponents. I see we have a 
so let's replace that with 
:
Now let's look for multiplcation. We know that things that are right next to eachother in parentheses represent multiplcation, so let's simply this more:
And now we're left with a simple problem we know how to solve.
Answer: 
Hope this helps!
1/5x1/2=1/10
1/5 because there are 5 flavors.
1/2 because there are 2 kinds of pies.
So the answer is 1/10.
Hope this helps.
