Let the number of deluxe that Pacific has be x
the number that Caribbean has will be (x+18)
the number that Mediterranean has will be (3x-25)
total b=number of deluxe in the 3 ships will be:
x+(x+18)+(3x-25)
5x-7=928
5x=928+7
x=935/5
x=187
Hence the Pacific has 187, Caribbean has 187+18=205, Mediterranean has (3*187-25)
=534
for example lets use 3^2 + 4^2, you add the main numbers, 3 and 4 to get 7, then there are still the exponents, the squared signs, they don't change, they stay as a two. If your problem required a single whole number, then you have to square the 7, 7*7 is 49, so that or 7^2 would be your final answer.
