<h2><u>EQUATIONS</u></h2>
We'll solve this equation:
<h3>5x + 17 = 4(3x - 1)</h3>
First, let's apply the distributive property:
5x + 17 = 4(3x - 1)
5x + 17 = 12x - 4
Now, add 4 to both sides of the equation:
5x + 17 = 12x - 4
5x + 17 + 4 = 12x - 4 + 4
5x + 21 = 12x
Substract 5x from both sides:
5x + 21 = 12x
5x - 5x + 21 = 12x - 5x
21 = 12x - 5x
21 = 7x
Now, divide both sides by 7
21 ÷ 7 = 7x ÷ 7
<h3> 3 = x</h3>
Therefore, x = 3.
<h3>B. The equation has one solution.</h3>
