1 answer:
vagabundo [1.1K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

14 books

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b = number of books at the beginning

She sold 1/2 of the books

b - 1/2 b

This is how many she had left

Then she bought 7

b - 1/2 b + 7

this equals 14

b - 1/2 b + 7 = 14

Combine like terms

1/2 b + 7 = 14

Subtract 7 from each side

1/2 b = 14-7

1/2 b = 7

Multiply each side by 2

1/2 b * 2 = 7*2

b = 14

She started with 14 books
