the problem is a pattern that multiplies by two and subtracts one each time.
3x2=6 6-1=5 5x2=10 10-2=9 9x2=18 18-1=17 17x2=34 34-1=33
3n+4=-5
do the opposite of adding 4. this means you have to subtract 4 from 4. whatever you do to the problem, you must do to the answer. now subtract 4 from -5.
-5-4=-9
since 4-4=0, we can take 4 out of the equation. now you have:
3n=-9
now divide -9 by 3
-9/3=-3
n=-3
hope this helps :)
Answer:
Emily got 7x
Liam got 2x
7x = 2x + 80
5x = 80
x = 16
Liam got 32, <u>Sarah got 48</u>, and Emily got 112
