Step-by-step explanation:
2 + x + 2x = 14
3x + 2 = 14 (combine like terms)
3x = 12 (subtract 2 from both sides)
Hence the answer is 3x = 12. (B)
3x^2 - 7x - 20

Answer:
terminating
Gordon gets 16£, Henry gets 24£ and Sarah gets 8£
Let the ratio be 2x + 3x + 1x
Total amount = £48
So;
2x + 3x + x = 48
6x = 48
x = 48 / 6
x = 8
Now
2x = 16
3x = 24
