Total people x,
then, 3.5x + 5.5x + 6 = 51
simplify, 9x +6 = 51
subtract 6 on both sides, 9x= 45
divide by 9 on both sides, x= 5
therefore, total 5 people in the family.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(35 - 20)/20
15/20 = .75
.75 * 100 == 75%
75%
Obviously this will be a negative number
-2 - 14 = 5x - 3x
-16 = 2x
x = %28-16%29%2F2
x = -8 is the number

Check solution in the original statement: x=-8
3(-8) - 2 = 5(-8) + 14
-24 - 2 = -40 + 14
-26 = -26
