1.   Equations are:    
3x + 2 = 5x + 8      and     7x + 2 = 7x - 4
2.   The equation is:
2(32x - 2) = 2x + 36
64x - 4 = 2x + 36
3. You have to choose a classmate's question and answer.
4. You have to look at responses and comments.
        
             
        
        
        
Part A) 
His sample only involves days during the summer (if Devin is in the northern hemisphere), which would mean that the high temperatures he'll record are likely to be higher than the average. Therefore, the sample mean he computes does not represent the average high temperature for the whole year. 
----------------------------------------
Part B)
To correct his mistake, he needs to sample every day of the year. Or he could sample a few days of each month (say the first ten days of each month). That way the entire year is better represented. The other seasons of spring, fall and winter are included now. 
 
        
             
        
        
        
1 yard = 3 feet
2.5×18=45 feet
45÷3= 15 yards
        
             
        
        
        
Should be 21 boys because 7+7+7 equal 21 and 3+3+3 equal 9 which equals 30
