Let's use the variable x to represent the number.
3x+12-5x=22
Combine like terms
-2x+12=22
Subtract 12 from both sides
-2x=10
Divide both sides by -2
x=-5
Final answer: The number is -5

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that in the weekly ad 5 pound bag of organic apples will cost 13.95 dollars
To find unit rate
Unit rate can be found in two ways either cost of 1 apple or no of apples for 1 dollars
I part:
5 apples = 13.95 dollars
1 apple = 13.95/5 (since direct variation)
Unit rate for one apple= 2.79 dollars
Part II:
13.95 dollars = 1 apple
1 dollar = 1/13.95 = 0.071
=0.07
But normally since apples are countable as 1,2 ... we use the first type of rate only unit rate per apple
