Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Declaration
Let Heather's number of messages = x
Let Eric's number of messages = x + 9
Let Chang's number of messages = 3(x +9)
Equation
x + x + 9 + 3(x + 9) = 116
Solution
x + x + 9 + 3(x + 9) = 116 Remove the brackets
x + x + 9 + 3x + 27 = 116 Combine like terms
x + x + 3x + 9 + 27 = 116
5x + 36 = 116 Subtract 36 from both sides
5x + 36 - 36 = 116 - 36 Combine
5x = 80 Divide both sides by 5
5x/5 = 80/5
x = 16
Answer
Heather = 16
Eric = 16 + 9 = 25
Chang = 3*25 = 75
Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 9 - 17x - 15 - x =????
2x - 17x - x + 9 - 15 = 0
- 15x - x - 16 = 0
- 16x - 16 =0
-16x = 16
x = 16 / - 16
x = 1
90/2 is 45.. 60/2 is 30.. 30+45=75... 75 students would be able to be in each of the 2 groups, each containing 45 girls and 30 boys ... Hope I helped (:
