Answer is A
if x+y=5
y= -x+5
2x + (-x+5) =-2
2x -x +5 = -2
x+5 = -2
x=-7
Multiply both the numerator and denominator by
, which is called the "conjugate" of
:

Why do we pick this number? Recall the difference of squares factorization:

Now replace
and
. Then

So in your fraction, you end up with

Finally, just expand the product.

i found this so srry if its wrong i saw no one answering this so i wanna help
Step-by-step explanation:
so, x*(7/100) + (3500 - x)*(4/100) = 197
=> 3x + 14000 = 19700
=> 3x = 19700 - 14000
=> x = 5700/3 = 1900
