Answer:

Second number = -29

First number  = -34

Step-by-step explanation:

Second number = x

First number  = x - 5

3*(x-5) = 4x + 14

3x - 3*5 = 4x + 14

3x - 15  = 4x + 14

      -15 =  4x +14 - 3x

      -15 = x + 14

-14 - 15 = x

x = -29

Second number = -29

First number  = -29 - 5 = -34

How many 1/3 cup servings of juice are in a 5 cup container
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

We can get 15  (1/3 cup) servings with a 5 cup container

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we can easily divide 5 by (1/3)  to find how many servings can be obtained

5 /  (1/3)  

=  5 / (0.3333)

= 15

This can be checked by adding together (1/3) fifteen times

(1/3) + (1/3)+ (1/3)+ (1/3)+ (1/3)+ (1/3)+ (1/3)+ (1/3)+ (1/3)+ (1/3)+ (1/3)+ (1/3)+ (1/3)+ (1/3)+ (1/3)

= 15/3  = 5
