Answer: The answer is 5a+13
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x------> amount of pounds of apples
y------> amount of pounds of oranges
z-----> amount of pounds of peaches
we know that
x+y+z=127------> equation 1
x=4z-----> equation 2
y=7+z----> equation 3
substitute equation 2 and equation 3 in equation 1
x+y+z=127----> (4z)+(7+z)+z=127---> 6z=127-7---> 6z=120----> z=20 lb
x=4z---> x=4*20----> x=80 lb
y=7+z----> y=7+20---> y=27 lb
amount of pounds of apples----> 80 lb
amount of pounds of oranges----> 27 lb
amount of pounds of peaches---> 20 lb
-22 is your answer because all you have to do is take 4 away from -18 and you get -22
