Answer:
Alice: 82, 84, 86
Pat: 103, 105, 107
Step-by-step explanation:
Alice:
x + (x+2) + (x+4) = 252
3x + 6 = 252
3x = 246
x = 82 so Alice's last term is 82+4 = 86
Pat:
y + (y+2) + (y+4) = Pat's Total
Pat's last term is (y+4) so
Alice's last term + 25 = Pat's last trem
86 + 25 = 111 = y+4
y = 107
Total cost
=$100 - g
Total number of bags = 7
Cost of each bag
= total cost / total number of bags
=(100-g) / 7
(note: the parentheses are VERY important)
Exponent rule added:
12xx^2 -9x^2
rewrite 9 as 3 x 3, rewrite 12 as 3 x 4
3 * 4xx^2 - 3 * 3x^2 ( * is multiply)
factor common terms:
3x^2(4x-3) - answer.

Does this seem right to you?
I think the answer is 7. Hope this helps!
