Let's say you have John, Mary, and Ben. Let's say they have ONE chewy worm left, and they want to split it, and the worm has 5 segments, Green, Yellow, Red, Blue, and Purple.

Now, it can go like this:
CATEGORY 1: UNEVENLY
Way 1:
John gets the Purple and Blue
Mary gets the Red
Ben gets the Yellow and Green

Way 2:
John gets the Purple
Mary gets the Blue, Red, and Yellow
Ben gets the Green

Catagory 2: Evenly
Way 1:
You can cut the 5 segments each into 3 even pieces, this way there are 15 total. Then divide up the 15 by giving 5 each to John, Mary, and Ben.


~Hope this helps!

Leonardo wrote an equation that has an infinite number of solutions. One of the terms in Leonardo's equation is missing, as show
Tanya [424]

Answer:

The missing term is 3x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

-(x - 1) + 5 = 2(x + 3) - _

Required

Find _

For proper identification of the parameters, represent _ with Z

So, the equation becomes

-(x - 1) + 5 = 2(x + 3) - Z

Open bracket (start from the left hand side)

-x + 1 + 5 = 2(x + 3) - Z

-x + 1 + 5 = 2x + 6 - Z

Solve like terms

-x + 6 = 2x + 6 - Z

Subtract 6 from both sides

-x + 6 - 6 = 2x + 6 - 6 - Z

-x = 2x - Z

Subtract 2x from both sides

-x - 2x = 2x - 2x - Z

-3x = -Z

Multiply both sides by -1

-3x * -1 = -Z * -1

3x = Z

Reorder

Z = 3x

Hence, the missing term is 3x
