Hello there!^^

Step-by-step explanation:

⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒

Remove the parentheses
Add 1 to both sides
Simplify
Divide both sides by 2

Finally, you simplify again

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

→ 1. 2x-1=15

→ 2. 2x=15+1

→ 3. 2x=16

→ 4. x = 16/2

→ 5. x = 8

Answer: x = 8

Hence, x would equal to 8 (eight)

If two pounds of meat will serve 5 people how many pounds will be needed to serve 13 people

miv72 [106K]

The answer is 5.2 pounds of meat. To find this just divide the number of people by what the information you have about servings. 13/5=2.6(number of sets), then you multiply that by how many pounds are in each set. 2.6 sets* 2 pounds per set= 5.2 pounds.
I hope this helped!
