Total number of friends = 3
Let the fare be = $ J
As it is equally divided, each friend has to pay 
amount
Angela paid $5 additional as tip so her share is 
Hence,Angela paid $ in total.
Answer:
5x + 2x.....combine like terms..... = 7x
5x + 2x....subbing in 1 7x - 1....subbing in 1
5(1) + 2(1) = 5 + 2 = 7 7(1) - 1 = 7 - 1 = 6
5x + 2x...subbing in 2 7x - 1...subbing in 2
5(2) + 2(2) = 10 + 4 = 14 7(2) - 1 = 14 - 1 = 13
5x + 2x...subbing in 3 7x - 1...subbing in 3
5(3) + 2(3) = 15 + 6 = 21 7(3) - 1 = 21 - 1 = 20
5x + 2x...subbing in 4 7x - 1....subbing in 4
5(4) + 2(4) = 20 + 8 = 28 7(4) - 1 = 28 - 1 = 27
5x + 2x...subbing in 5 7x - 1...subbing in 5
5(5) + 2(5) = 25 + 10 = 35 7(5) - 1 = 35 - 1 = 34
5x + 2x result values are 1 more then 7x - 1 result values
there are no values that will make the 2 expressions equal....
because 5x + 2x = 7x......and the other one is 7x - 1......so the 7x - 1 values will always be 1 number less...because ur subtracting one
Step-by-step explanation:
7x + 14 + 3x + 15 = 14x + 14 + 2
10x + 14 = 14x + 16
14 - 16 = 14x - 10x
-2 = 4x
X = - 2/4
X = - 1/2 OR X = - 0.5
16/ 2.10 = 7.6 ounces per $1
20/ 3.15 = 6.3 ounces per $1
So which do you think?
Divide 15 by 2, then square the amount.
(15/2)^2 = 225/4
