Answer:
x = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Exterior angles are equal.
7x - 3 = 6x + 17
Add 3 and subtract 6x to both sides.
x = 20 is the answer.
First one simplifies to 2x + 6 = 2x + 7 which can't be true so this one has No Solution.
Same applies to the second equation ( 5x + 15 = 5x - 15) No solution
also the last one has no solution because it simplifies to 4x + 20 = 4x + 19
The first step to solving this is to remember our mathematical rules. They state that when the term has a coefficient of -1,, the number doesn't have to be written but the sign needs to remain. This will change the expression to the following:
x - v + 4 + 7y - 3
Now subtract the numbers 4 and 3 from each other.
x - v + 1 + 7y
Since this expression cannot be simplified any further,, the correct answer to your question would be x - v + 1 + 7y.

Where <em>x </em>is the number of books sold, <em>i </em>is income, and <em>c </em>is cost:
<em>c = 4x + 3500 </em> ($4 per book plus the 3500 flat marketing fee)
<em>i = 15x </em>($15 per book)
You are looking for the point where these intersect: the intersection is where the income is equal to the cost, and at any point after that the income is greater than the cost. So, set the equations equal to each other:
<em>4x + 3500 = 15x </em>
subtract 4x from both sides
<em>3500 = 11x</em>
divide both sides by 11
<em>x = 318.181818</em>
So, you would have to sell a minimum of 319 books in order to make a profit.
