Let x be equal to the number of drinks Yasmine consumed.
Jose had 2 times that drink so his number of consumed drink would be represented by 2x.
Sally had 3 fewer drink than Jose so her number of consumed drinks would be represented by 2x-3.
Altogether, the three of them consumed 72 drinks so your equation would be:
x+2x+(2x-3)=72
add like terms together:
5x-3=72
have the term with x be alone on one side of the equation, in this case by adding three to both sides:
5x=75
now divide both sides by five for the value of x and your answer is.....
x=15

7 people left on the train
Answer:
35 students in the class.
Step-by-step explanation:
If there are 5 students in the class, then 2 of them would wear glasses and 3 of them wouldn't. (Equation 1)
Now, there are 14 students how are wearing glasses.
We just times the whole Equation 1 by 7.
If there are 5 x 7 = 35 students in the class, then 2 x 7 = 14 of them would wear glasses and 3 x 7 = 21 of them wouldn't.
So, there are 35 students.
