Write and solve an equation based on the following description: “11 less than three times a number is the same as 75 less than the product of -1 and the number”

Equation: 3n-11=-n-75 Solution: n= -16

A person weighs 120 lbs & is gaining 2 lbs a week. Another person weighs 155 lbs and is losing 1/2 lb each week. Write an equation that could be used to determine x, the number of weeks that it will take for them to weigh the same.

120 + 2x = 155 - 1/2x

A person could go to the gym and pay $12/day. A person could instead get a gym membership for $60 and pay $2/day that they go. Write and solve an equation to represent the amount of days this person would have to go the gym to make them =.

14x=60+2x. x=5
