Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
7(x + 4) - 7 = 48 - 2x ← distribute parenthesis and simplify left side
7x + 28 - 7 = 48 - 2x
7x + 21 = 48 - 2x ( add 2x to both sides )
9x + 21 = 48 ( subtract 21 from both sides )
9x = 27 ( divide both sides by 9 )
x = 3
Explanation:
Pair 1 is true if Jeff's monthly income is $600/20% = $3,000.
Pair 2 is true if Jeff's monthly income is $1200/10% = $12,000.

Obviously, Jeff spent more on housing in 2010. (Fortunately for Jeff, that larger expenditure was a smaller fraction of his income.)
Question 11 is C and also question 2 is A
