\sf \bf {\boxed {\mathbb {GIVEN:}}}

Sum of the two numbers = -5

One of the number = 3

\sf \bf {\boxed {\mathbb {TO\:FIND:}}}

The other number.

\sf \bf {\boxed {\mathbb {SOLUTION:}}}

The other number is \sf\blue{-8}.

\sf \bf {\boxed {\mathbb {STEP-BY-STEP\:\:EXPLANATION:}}}

Let the other number be x.

As per the question, we have

Sum \:  \:  of \:  \:  the \:  \:  two  \:  \: numbers  =  -5

➺ \: 3 + x =  - 5

➺ \: x =  - 5 - 3

➺ \: x =  - 8

\sf\purple{Therefore,\:the\:other\:number\:is\:-8.}

\sf \bf {\boxed {\mathbb {TO\:VERIFY :}}}

➪  \: 3 + ( - 8) =  - 5

➪  \: 3 - 8 =  - 5

➪  \:  - 5 =  - 5

➪ L. H. S. = R. H. S.

\sf\orange{Hence\:verified.}

Jada is making lemonade for a get together with her friends. She expects a total of 5 to 8 people to be there (including herself).?

She plans to prepare 2 cups of lemonade for each person. The lemonade recipe calls for 4 scoops of lemonade powder for each quart of water. Each quart is equivalent to 4 cups. Let n represent the number of people at the get together, c the number of cups of water, S the number of scoops of lemonade powder. Select all the mathematical statements that repsent the quantities and constraints in the situation.

A. 5<n<8

B. 5≤ n≤8

C. c=2n

d. S = c

e. 10<c<16

f. 10≤S≤16

Let

n = number of people at the get together,

c = number of cups of water,

S = number of scoops of lemonade powder.

She expects a total of 5 to 8 people to be there (including herself).

B. 5 ≤ n ≤ 8
