<span>A. Given the equation 4x + 7 = 3(2x − 5), solve for the variable.
</span>4x + 7 = 3(2x − 5)
<span>4x + 7 = 6x - 15 (distributive property of multiplication)
4x - 6x = -15 - 7 (transitive property)
-2x = -22
x = 11
B. Sam solved a similar equation below. Is Sam's solution correct? Explain why or why not.
5x − 1 = 2(x + 4)
5x − 1 = 2x + 8
7x − 1 = 8
7x = 7
x = 1
Sam's solution is incorrect, this is the correct solution
</span>5x − 1 = 2(x + 4)
5x − 1 = 2x + 8
5x − 2x = 8 + 1
3x = 9
x = 3

Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
You can use x=0 and x=1 to find points that must be on the graph.
f(0) = 16·0.5^0 = 16
f(1) = 16·0.5^1 = 8
Only graph A matches these points.
