Jamie has 105 pieces of candy leftover from halloween. she would like to distribute them evenly to the 7 kids on her block. write an equation to show how many pieces of candy each kid will receive.

  7n = 105

step-by-step explanation:

let n represent the number of candies each kid will receive. then 7n is the total number the 7 kids will receive. if jamie distributes all 105 pieces, then

  7n = 105 . . the requested equation

because linear equations are a lot simpler than quadratics equations, and linear equations formula is a lot easier to memorize. that's why i think they're harder.

y < -3

step-by-step explanation:

-3y - 2 > 7

-3y -2 + 2 > 7+2

-3y > 9

-3y/-3 < 9/-3   (change the inequality sign when multiplying or dividing by a negative number)

y < -3
