1 is the only common factor
3x+14=2+5x-20
3x+14=5x-18
-5x -5x
-2x+14=-18
-14 -14
-2x=-32
Divide that -32 with -2
And the answer is x=16.
X+(x+1)+(x+2)=72
3x=72-3
3x=69
X=23
23+24+25= 72
First, find out how many messages are received a second. Do this by dividing messages by 60 seconds.
120/60 = 2 messages a second
now multiply 2 by 150
2*150 = 300messages in 150 seconds
your answer is (3) 300
1/3x + 5 = -2 is the way to set up the equation…. You got this!
