Answer:
x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
2) -3x + 17 = -x - 3
4) 20 = 2x
1) -3x + 12 + 5 = -x -3
5) 10 = x
3) 17 = 2x - 3
<u>-3(x - 4) + 5 = -x - 3</u>
<u>-3x + 12 + 5 = -x - 3</u>
<u>-3x + 17 = -x -3</u>
<em>+3x +3x</em>
<u>17 = 2x - 3</u>
<em>+3 + 3</em>
<u>20 = 2x</u>
<u>10 = x</u>

I hope that this helps! :)
If you do the proportion, you have to put 1/5 = 20/100. The 20 represents the percentage. Then you have to say to yourself that how many time 5 goes to 100, well its x20 then if we multiply 1 x 20 we'll get 20. So, he is correct, 1/5 = 20%. Remember what number we think of when we hear the word percent, the number is 100.
The system:
y = 3 x - 7
15 x - 5 y = 14
---------------------
Using the substitution method:
15 x - 5 · ( 3 x - 7 ) = 14
15 x - 15 x + 35 = 14
0 · x = 14 - 35
0 · x = - 21
x , y ∈ ∅
Answer:
D ) There is no solution.
The answer would be B. -4
