By the knowledge and application of <em>algebraic</em> definitions and theorems, we find that the expression - 10 · x + 1 + 7 · x = 37 has a solution of x = 12. (Correct choice: C)
<h3>How to solve an algebraic equation</h3>
In this question we have an equation that can be solved by <em>algebraic</em> definitions and theorems, whose objective consists in clearing the variable x. Now we proceed to solve the equation for x:
- - 10 · x + 1 + 7 · x = 37 Given
- (- 10 · x + 7 · x) + 1 = 37 Associative property
- -3 · x + 1 = 37 Distributive property/Definition of subtraction
- - 3 · x = 36 Compatibility with addition/Definition of subtraction
- x = 12 Compatibility with multiplication/a/(-b) = -a/b/Definition of division/Result
By the knowledge and application of <em>algebraic</em> definitions and theorems, we find that the expression - 10 · x + 1 + 7 · x = 37 has a solution of x = 12. (Correct choice: C)

Amount of liquid plant fertilizer in the container that the gardener has = 6 1/5 pounds
= 31/5 pounds
We already know that 1 pound = 16 ounce
Then
Amount of liquid plant fertilizer in the
container that the gardener has = (31/5) * 16 ounce
= 496/5 pounds
Amount of liquid plant fertilizer that the gardener uses on Sunday = 2 1/2 ounces
= 5/2 ounces
Then
The amount of liquid plant fertilizer that are left= (496/5) - (5/2) ounces
= (992 - 25)/10 ounces
= 967/10 ounces
= 96.7 ounces
So the total amount of liquid plant fertilizer left is 96.7 ounces.
