Jayden buys a few apples and gives half to Daniel. Daniel eats 2 from his share and keeps the remaining 7 in the freezer. How many apples did Jayden buy?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this is beyond me :( calculus

OpenStudy (anonymous):

WAIT. I get it. once he puts the apples in the freezer they aren't apples anymore! REVELATION!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Calculus to hard :(

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Just work backwards. Daniel obviously had 9 before he ate one.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

he ate 2 before putting 7 in the freezer...so he started with 9

OpenStudy (ar43r):

x 0,5x 0,5x-2=7 x=18

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no forget algebra 9 is half of what?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

9 is half of 18...so Jayden started with 18 apples
