Hi!
The table above is showing how to plug in a variable to x. For an example,
5x - 3 =?
when x= 4 would equal 17. How we would get this is substitute x with 4 and use our order of operations.
5(4) - 3 = 20 - 3 =  17
To get 68, we would do this in reverse. We would add 3 to both sides to eliminate the -3 to have a remainder of
5x  =  71
Divide both sides by five to solve for x.
x = \frac{71}{5}
We can also check our math and plug in 17/5 into x
5( \frac{71}{5} ) - 3 =71 - 3 = 68

a certain forest covers an area of 3100 km^2. suppose that each year this area decreases by 8.25%. what will the area be after 1
IrinaK [193]
A decrease of 8.25% means the reduction factor is 100-8.25=91.75%=0.9175.
The shrinkage over 15 years is 0.9175¹⁵=0.27485 approx, so the size of the forest will be 3100×0.27485=852 sq km approx.
