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:
See below. <u><em>I assume that (x) = 8x2 - 7x + 3 is really (x) = 8x^2 - 7x + 3</em></u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute the value of x given in f(x) into the equation f(x) = 8x^2 - 7x + 3
For example, f(0) would be f(0) = 8(0)^2 - 7(0) + 3. f(0) = 3
f(-2) would be f(-2) = 8(-2)^2 - 7(-2) + 3.
= 8*4 + 14 +3
= 32 + 17 therefore f(-2) = 49

Answer:
£30
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Brian initially had money in his wallet = £x
and Colin had the money = £y
Since ratio of money in Brian's wallet to Colin's wallet was 5 : 1
Therefore,
⇒ x = 5y -------(1)
Brian spent £27 that day, so money left with him = £(x - 27)
After spending the money Brian had £3 less than Colin.
(x - 27) = (y - 3)
x = y + 27 - 3
x = y + 24 -------(2)
Now we equate the equations (1) and (2) for the value of x,
5y = y + 24
5y - y = 24
4y = 24
y = £6
From equation (2),
x = 6 + 24
x = £30
Therefore, Brian initially had £30.
i hope this helps
