Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
One person will fly a kite for each of the 6 kites Jon has.
6 people in all will fly a kite.
First, you set your problem up like this:
-4x+3=2x-6
add 6 to both sides so it looks like this:
-4x+9=2x
add 4x to both sides so it looks like this:
9=6x
divide 6 from both sides so this is your answer:
1.5=x
Answer:
7/12
Step-by-step explanation:
Basically to find the boys fraction I subtracted 40 from 96 and got 56. Your answer for the number of boys would be 56/96. I divided 4 from each and got 14/24. lastly I divide by 2 and got 7/12.
Since he’s already at -15, if he writes a check for 7 then he’s subtracting more from his account.
So, -15-7=-22
