We can multiply Leroy's hourly wage by the total number of hours he worked. On Friday, Leroy spent a total of (3 1/2 + 2 1/2) hours = 6 hours working. If he earns $11.75 in 1 hour, multiplying this by 6 gives $70.50, so this is the total amount he earned on Friday.
Answer: n = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
3n +2(n + 2) = 9n + 12
(simplify 2(n + 2)) =
3n + 2n + 4 = 9n + 12
(subtract 9n from both sides)
3n + 2n - 9n + 4 = 12
-4n + 4 = 12
(subtract 4 from both sides)
-4n = 8
(divide -4 from both sides)
n = -2
notice that the denominator can be factored into (x-3)(x+3).
Now you can cross out (x - 3) from the numerator and denomiantor resulting in a simplified fraction of 
Plug the limit value (which is 3) into the simplified fraction.
Answer: 
Do a proportion.
5/32= x/800
Cross multiply and divide
800 x 5= 4,000
4,000 divided by 32= 125
So answer is 125 students
