Answer:

Part A: 7n + 5

Part B : 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helps!!

The company went to the picnic with 15 persons.

Given that;

A Club Sandwich, CS = 3 slices

A Regular Sandwich, RS = 2 slices

A Dagwood Sandwich, DG = 5 slices

If total slices is 110, knowing that the company ordered an extra Dagwood solely for itself. Then we can remove the 5 slices of the Dagwood from the total.

110 - 5 = 105 slices

If each person takes 1 CS + 2 RS, then we have

3 slices + 2(2 slices)

= 3 + 4 slices

= 7 slices

then we divide 105 by the number of slices per person

105 / 7 = 15 persons.

This means that the company went to the picnic with 15 persons.
