The number of peaches, p, is three less than half the number of grapes, g. which expression represents the number of peaches in terms of the number of grapes a. g/2-3 b.2g-3 c. g-3/2 d.3g-2

peaches = 3 less than one half the number of grapes

 so from the written problem you can get:

p=1/2g-3

1/2g is the same as g/2

 so answer is A. p= g/2-3

37/3

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

7x+8(x+

)=3(6x−9)−8

7x+(8)(x)+(8)(

)=(3)(6x)+(3)(−9)+−8(distribute)

7x+8x+2=18x+−27+−8

(7x+8x)+(2)=(18x)+(−27+−8)(combine like terms)

15x+2=18x+−35

15x+2=18x−35

tep 2: subtract 18x from both sides.

15x+2−18x=18x−35−18x

−3x+2=−35

step 3: subtract 2 from both sides.

−3x+2−2=−35−2

−3x=−37

step 4: divide both sides by -3.
