Try this option (see the attacthed file; answer is marked with red colour); note, that

answer: 2 m/h.
Answer:
14)= 2/3/23 × 1/9/14
= 49/23 × 23/14 = 3/1/2
U CAN USE A CALCULATOR to find the rest......If u have one....
If the current ratio of red to blue to green socks is 2:3:7, then t<span>here are exactly 2x red socks, 3x blue socks and 7x green socks.

1. If amount of red socks are increased by n new socks, then t<span>here are exactly 2x+n red socks, 3x blue socks and 7x green socks and (2x+n):3x:7x=8:9:21. This means that 2x+n=8y, 3x=9y, 7x=21y. You have that x=3y and 6y+n=8y, n=2y.
</span>
2. If amount of blue socks are increased by n+2 new socks, then t<span>here are exactly 2x red socks, 3x+n+2 blue socks and 7x green socks and 2x:(3x+n+2):7x=2:4:7. This means that 2x=2t, 3x+n+2=4t, 7x=7t. Now you have that x=t and 3t+n+2=4t, n=t-2.
</span><span>
</span><span>3. Solve x=3y, n=2y, x=t, n=t-2. You obtain that t=3y, t-2=2y. Then 3y-2=2y and y=2. Hence, x=6=t, n=6-2=4.

</span><span>Answer: n=4

To find these two lets convert this into slope-intercept form:
-7x + 7y = -17
7y = 7x -17
y = x - 17/7
So, the slope is 1 and the y-intercept is -17/7
Hope this helps!
