X = mary's shells
g = 1 1/4x + 5
n = 1 1/2x+ 1
g = n
1 1/4x + 5 = 1 1/2x + 1
5/4x + 5 = 3/2x + 1...multiply by common denominator of 4, this will get rid of fractions...however, this is optional...u can work with fractions if u wish.
5x + 20 = 6x + 4
5x - 6x = 4 - 20
-x = - 16
x = 16....so Mary has 16 shells
True, all of them represent a negative number, for example:
You have $60 and you spent $10, the remaining money is:

Your savings are $1000 and you make a Withdrawal of $500:

In other words for calculation purposes, they all have negative values
Answer:
x = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
4 - 1 / x - 7 (simplify)
3 / x - 7 = 3/4 (multiply by x - 7)
3 = 3/4 (x - 7)
3 = 3/4x - 5.25 (add 5.25 to both sides)
8.25 = 3/4x (divide both sides by 8.25)
x = 11
sub into the formula to check:
4-1 / 11 - 7
3 / 4
