Answer 1

Explanation:

Let the number of days that they worked on this art project be represented by x

We are told that:

Three art students used a total of 28 1/2 inches of string for an art project each student used 2 1/2 inches of string plus an additional 1 3/4 of string for each day rthey worked on the art project

For 1 student, let y represent the total number of inches of string used by each student

The Equation is given as:

2 1/2 + 1 3/4 x = y
