X/(x+5) = (x-2)/(x+1)
x(x+1) = (x -2) (x + 5)
x^2 + x = x^2 - 2x + 5x - 10
x = 3x - 10
3x - x = 10
2x = 10
x = 5
answer is A
5

I just took quiz
Interesting problem.
First - let's figure cost of each uniform at purchase.
3,000/40 = $75 each
When some uniforms were returned at $40 - there was a difference of $35 in what they paid and what they rec'd in return. ($75 - 35 = $40)
Answer: About 6.71 units

You use the distance formula: 
.
Assign the the two points to the variables:
Substitute them in the formula:
And solve it:
Answer:-43 + 9x = 0
Step-by-step explanation:Simplifying
9x + -43 = 0
Reorder the terms:
-43 + 9x = 0
Solving
-43 + 9x = 0
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '43' to each side of the equation.
-43 + 43 + 9x = 0 + 43
Combine like terms: -43 + 43 = 0
0 + 9x = 0 + 43
9x = 0 + 43
Combine like terms: 0 + 43 = 43
9x = 43
Divide each side by '9'.
x = 4.777777778
Simplifying
x = 4.777777778
