Answer:
To solve for n you need to get it by itself
First you want to distribute your 2 through the (3n+14)
-2n+6n+28=-20 (2*3n+2*14= 6n+28)
Now you want to combine any like terms if possible
4n+28=-20 (-2n+6n=4n, both like terms)
Then you want to subtract -28 from both sides
4n=-48 (28-28=0, -20-28=-48)
Lastly you want to divide both sides by 4
n=-12 (4n/4=n, -48/4= -12)
Answer:
yes it is c you are correct
Multiply both sides by 19 to get w=171
First let's make the denominators of the fractions equal.
To do this, we have to find a number which both 5 and 7 divide into.
The smallest number that does this is 35.
2 --> Multiply the numerator by 7
--
5 --> Multiply the denominator by 7 to get 35
= 14/35
1 --> Multiply the numerator by 5
--
7 --> Multiply the denominator by 5 to get 35
= 5/35
Joe has eaten 14/35 and James has eaten 5/35.
14 / 5 = 2.8
<u>Joe has eaten 2.8 (or 2 4/5) times more pizza than James.</u>
