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:

The last choice. The red one

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm just guessing at this point. But, by the looks of it, red does seem like it would be correct. Again, this is just a guess. So, if it's wrong I'm so sorry. Have a lovely day.
