Answer:

3.5 pounds for 14 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

1 pound = 4 people

Required

Determine the pounds for 14 people

Represent this with x; so, we have:

1\ pound = 4\ people

x = 14\ people

Cross Multiply

x * 4 = 1 * 14

4x = 14

Solve for x

x = 14/4

x = 3.5

<em>Hence, 3.5 pounds for 14 people</em>

Which procedure justifies whether Negative 3 x (5 minus 4) + 3 (x minus 6) is equivalent to Negative 12 x minus 6? The expressio
Nady [450]

Answer:

The expressions are not equivalent because -3(2)(5-4)+3(2-6)=-18 and -12(2)-6=-30

Step-by-step explanation:

Two expressions are said to be equal if after a number is substituted to the expression, they produce the same result (that is they have the same value).

To determine whether -3x(5-4)+3(x-6) is equivalent to -12x-6, we have to substitute the same number to the expression and see if it produces the same result.

Substituting 2 to the first expression gives:

-3×2(5-4) + 3(2 - 6) = -6 - 12 = -18

Substituting 2 to the second expression gives:

-12(2) - 6 = -24 - 6 = -30

Since -3×2(5-4) + 3(2 - 6) = -6 - 12 = -18 and -12(2) - 6 = -24 - 6 = -30, the expressions are not equivalent because they do not produce the same result.
