55+p=105
subtract 55 from both sides
p=50

A. population in 1975 ........................
First convert 5 cans of dog food to a fraction
(5*3)/3 = 15/3
15/3 - 1/3 = 14/3
he uses 1/3 a can and so he then has 14 servings.
1) Set up an equation for the total, with T representing Trevor and M representing Marissa:
T + M = 26
2) Use the provided information related Marissa's t-shirts to Trevor's to solve for one variable at a time (in this case, T):
M = T-6
3) Substitute M with this equation into the initial, first equation:
T + (T-6) = 26
4) Combine like terms and isolate T:
T+T = 26 + 6
2T = 32
T = 16
5) Therefore, you now know that Trevor has 16 t-shirts. To find the number of t-shirts that Marissa has, simply plug in this amount for T into the equation that was already set up for M:
M = T - 6
M = 16 - 6
M = 10
Therefore, Trevor has 16 t-shirts and Marissa has 10 t-shirts.
