Total= 2838
x= # of children
3x+5= # of women
4(3x+5)-3= # of men

x + (3x+5) + 4(3x+5)-3= 2838
multiply 4 by 3x+5 first

x + (3x+5) + (4*3x) + (4*5) - 3= 2838
combine like terms

4x + 5 + 12x + 20 - 3= 2838
16x + 22= 2838
subtract 22 from both sides

16x= 2816
divide both sides by 16

x= 176

ANSWER:
# Children= x= 176
# Women= 3x+5= 3(176)+5= 533
# Men= 4(3x+5)-3=4(3(176)+5)-3= 2129

CHECK:
#children + #women + #men= 2838
176 + 533 + 2129= 2838
2838= 2838

Hope this helps! :)

It's candy time! Suppose 5 friends go out candy collecting. Starting out, Ms. Gleason gave each of them 12 pieces of candy. Then
sdas [7]

Answer:

6 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

First, since they all collected 510, you divide 510 by 5, to figure out how much each person got.

You then know that each of them got 102 candies, so now, you subtract 12 from from 102, since the teacher gave them that much in the beginning.

You're left with 90, so last step is to divide 90 by 15, since they collect 15 every hour, which you get left with 6. Meaning they collected candies for 6 hours
