Answer:
Emmanuel purchased 11 pounds of soil last week.
Step-by-step explanation:
If we want to find the number of pounds of soil Emmanuel purchased last week, we will have to work backwards.
We know that the amount is 5 lb more than twice the amount of potting soil he bought last week. This info gives us an equation.
2x + 5 = 27, as its twice the amount last week and 5 lbs more. Now we solve.
2x + 5 = 27 | Subtract 5 from both sides
2x = 22 | Divide both sides by 2
x = 11
Answer:
A) x + x+1 + x+2
We don't need equation A)
B) 3*(x+2) = (x + X+1) +102
3x + 6 = 2x + 1 + 102
x = 97
Numbers are 97, 98 and 99
Step-by-step explanation:
Add 2500G and 1250G and you get 3750
divide by 6 and you get 625
answer 625
(3x-5)(2x+7) =
= 3x·2x + 3x·7 - 5·2x - 5·7
= 6x² + 21x - 10x - 35
= 6x² + 11x - 35
