Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
(2x + 2) -
(3x - 1) = 15
multiply through by 4 ( the LCM of 2 and 4 ) to clear the fractions
2(2x + 2) - (3x - 1) = 60 ← distribute parenthesis and simplify left side
4x + 4 - 3x + 1 = 60
x + 5 = 60 ( subtract 5 from both sides )
x = 55
What does x equal? In order to find the relationship between x and y we need to know both values at a given instance. For example, if x = 10 while y = 20/3, then we know that you = 20x/30 or 2x/3.
