4.3125 is the answer to that equation
14 points per game is the unit rate
First you are going to solve for f.
6f = -2
you must get f alone so you divide both sides of the equation by 6 which becomes ....
f = -3
now you add the absolute value sign to -3. absolute value is how far away your answer is from 0. -3 is 3 away from zero so f = 3
Let us assume the first number = x
Then the second number = 5x -2
The third number = x + 4
The total number that needs to be divided into three parts is 219
Then we can write the equation as
x + 5x - 2 + x + 4 = 219
7x + 2 = 219
7x = 219 - 2
7x = 217
x = 217/7
= 31
Then
First number = 31
Second number = 5x - 2
= (5 * 31) - 2
= 155 -2
= 153
Third number = x + 4
= 31 + 4
= 35
So the three numbers are 31, 153 and 35.
