Let us suppose the number is x. Now we try to make an algebraic expression going step by step.
Step 1:
Five times the number means 5 multiplied by x.
So it becomes 5x.
Step 2:
Sum of 14 and five times the number means 5x+14.
Step 3:
Number multiplied by -8 means -8x.
Step 4:
Subtract the expression in step (3) from expression in step (2)
5x+14-(-8x)
Now we can simplify it further,
5x+14+8x
Combining like terms,
13x+14
Answer: The final expression becomes 13x+14.
Answer: Machine A makes popcorn at a rate of 4.25 ozs per minute (12.75oz/3min).
Machine B makes popcorn at a rate of 4.5 ozs per minute (18oz/4min).
Machine A will make 4.25oz/min * 10minutes = 42.5oz of popcorn after 10 minutes
Machine B will make 4.5oz/min * 10 minutes = 45oz of popcorn after 10 minutes
After 10 minutes there will be a total of 42.5oz (Machine A) +45oz (Machine B) = 87.5oz.
So the answer is: Yes there will be (more than) enough popcorn if both machines make popcorn for 10 minutes.
If the question is wondering how many 9oz bags they can fill: 87.5oz/9oz per bag = 9.7222 bags. The machines can fill 9, 9oz, bags with some popcorn leftover.
