We have been given the equation

It represents the number of people standing to catch a commuter train x hours after 5 A.M.
Now, in order to find the number of people in line at 7 a.m. , we need to substitute x= 2 in the above equation.

Therefore, the number of people in the line at 7 a.m. is 40
D id the correct option.
Answer:
The answer is: 
Step-by-step explanation:
If we add the angles inside a triangle, we must have
. So we have an
angle and an
angle, their sum is
, so the missing angle must be 
<u>-2.3 x = 0.46</u>
Step 1:
Divide each side by -2.3 : x = - 0.46 / 2.3
Step 2:
To simplify the fraction,
divide -0.46 by 2.3 : <em>x = - 0.2
</em>
