The answer to this problem is 5.
Question 4:
2x-3
Because we don’t know how much Fernando has that would be where we fill in the variable giving you 2x then 3 dollars less will give you the -3 therefore 2x-3
Question 5:
1/2x+7
Because we don’t know Deb’s age that would be the variable and we are looking for half of Deb’s age giving you 1/2x then the 7 years more giving you the +7 hence 1/2x+7
6 boxes (add the cumulatively)

3rd box:30w,15o
4th box:40w,20o
5th box:50w,25o
6th box:60w,30o
