<h3>Answer:  6 apples</h3>

x = number of apples originally

50% of x = 0.50*x = amount of apples eaten = 3

0.50x = 3

x = 3/0.50 ....... divide both sides by 0.50

x = 6

You can think of 50% as 1/2. If 3 apples represent half the bag, then the full bag is 6 apples. So half of 6 is 3.

You have 2 equations that are both equal to y. If they are both equal to y, then by the transitive property of equality, they are equal to each other (if a = b, and b = c, then a = c).
5x - 17 = x + 3 and
4x = 20 and x = 5. Now sub in that x value of 5 to solve for y:
y = 5 + 3 and y = 8. So the ordered pair is (5, 8)

Write the equation of the line that has an x-intercept of -3 and passes through the point (-3, 7).
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

'x = -3', when graphed, passes through the point (-3,7) and (-3,0).

Since the line passes (-3,0), the x-intercept is -3.

(-3, 7) lies on the equation.

I have attached a picture of the graphed equation.

'x = -3' should be the correct answer.
