E. 5x+3 = 28
5x = 28 - 3
Divide by 5
Final answer = 5
F. 3x-9 = 18
3x = 18 + 9
18 + 9 = 27
Divide by 3
Final answer: 9
G. 8x-1=7
8x = 7 + 1
7 + 1 = 8
8x = 8
Divide by 8
Final answer: 1
H. 3x+5 = 10
3x = 10 - 5
10 - 5 = 5
Divide by 3
Final answer: 5/3
i. 13 + 7x = -1
7x = -1 - 13
-1 - 13 = -14
Divide by 7
Final answer: -2
j. 14 = 3x + 5
-3x + 14 = 5
-3x = 5 - 14
-3x = -9
Divide by - 3
Final answer: 3
K. 4x - 7 = -13
4x = -13 + 7
4x = -6
Divide by 4
Final answer: -3/2
l. -3 = 2x+ 9
-2x - 3 = 9
-2x = 9 + 3
9 + 3 = 12
2x = 12
Divide it by -2
Final answer: -6
Hey Meri!
x represents the numbers of gallons of gas in the vehicle.
The values x can represent is called our domain.
x can not take on negative values,
it wouldn't make sense to have a negative amount of gas in the car, right?
So the lower limit on our domain is zero.
The car can hold up to 17 gallons of gas,
that should make it clear what the upper limit on our domain is.
The range is the distance traveled on these gallons of gas.
If zero gallons of gas are put into the car,
then no distance will be traveled.
So the low end of our range will be zero.
If 17 gallons of gas are put into the car,
then what distance can the vehicle travel?
Use your function to determine the upper end of your range.
X+3≤ -5+2x
Add 5 to the other side. (the inverse of subtraction, since 5 is negative)
x+8≤2x
Subtract x on both sides.
8≤x <- the answer
I hope this helps!

195 candies are not cherry flavored. Since 15% are cherry flavored then 85% would not be. 85% of 230 is 195.5, however, there are no halves in a candy so it would be 195 candies.
