Three friends went to the peach orchards in the country. there they can pick as many peaches as they want, but the owner gets p amount of peaches from each person who picks peaches. the three friends pick these amounts: 2p, 4p + 3, and 3p + 2. after giving the owner his peaches, what did the three friends take home?

The three friends took 6p + 5 peaches home

Explanation:

We are given that the three friends picked 2p, 4p+3 and 3p+2 peaches

This means that:

Total picked = 2p + 4p + 3 + 3p + 2 = 9p+5 peaches

Now, we know that the owner will take p peaches from each of the three friends

This means that:

Amount taken by owner = 3p peaches

Finally, to get the amount that the three friends will take home, we subtract the amount that the owner will take from the total amount they picked

This means that:

Number of peaches they took home = total picked - amount taken by owner

Number of peaches they took home = 9p + 5 - 3p

Number of peaches they took home = 6p + 5 peaches

Hope this helps :)

x = 17

step-by-step explanation:

1st step: isolate x.

24 - 3x = -27

-24         -24

-3x   =   -51

2nd step: divide.

-3x     =   -51

  3             3

  x       =     17
