Sam is packing gift boxes with fruit. For each apple he packs 3 plums and 5 oranges. If he puts 3 apples in a box, how many plum
s and Oranges will Sam put on the box?
2 answers:
You can make an equation.
Let x=oranges
p=plums
n=apples
n= 3p + 5x
So basically we know 1 Apple means Sam will pack 3 plums and 5 oranges
To get 3n which means 3 apples we have to multiply the whole equation by 3
(n= 3p + 5x) x3
3n=9p+15x
So Sam will also put 9 plums and 15 oranges if he puts 3 apples in the box
He will put 9 plums and 15 oranges in the box.

Answer:
22
Step-by-step explanation:
-12 + 3x + 2 = 5x - 10 - 8x
-10 + 3x = -3x -10
-10 + 6x = -10
6x = 0
x = 0
1/2b+2≤8
1/2b≤6
b≤12
Any number less than or equal to 12 can solve the equation.
