-3 • (5x + 2y = 7)
-15x - 6y = -21
-2x + 6y = 9
__________
-17x = -12
x = 12/17
5(12/17) + 2y = 7
2y = 7 - 60/17
2y = 3.47
y = 1.735
By 30%
original=100%
100%+30%=130%
find 130% of 288846
1.30 times 288846=375499.8
answer is C which is closest
Twice the difference of a number and 3 is at most 27
2*(n-3) <=27
to solve
distribute
2n -6 <=27
add 6 to each side
2n <=33
divide by 2
n <=33/2
n<= 16 1/2
If i did it right that should equal to -2
