2(x + 1) + 3x = 17

Distributive property.

2x + 2 + 3x = 17

Combine like terms.

5x + 2 = 17

Subtract 2 from both sides.

5x = 15

Divide both sides by 5.

First, you need to use the distributive property and distribute the 2 inside the parentheses.

2(x + 1) + 3x = 17

2(x) + 2(1) + 3x = 17

2x + 2 + 3x = 17                   -Combine like terms

2x + 3x + 2 = 17

5x + 2 = 17                 -Subtract 2 from both sides of the equation.

5x + 2 - 2 = 17 - 2

5x = 15                            -Finally, divide each side by 5 to find your answer

5x/5 = 15/5

x = 3

Hope this helps you!

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS FUNCTION PROBLEM
ycow [4]

Answer:

Choose f(x) = 11x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that we will simply plug the value of 2 into the equation for February:

f(2) = 11(2) + 1 = 23

And plug the value of 6 into the equation for June:

f(6) = 11(6) + 1 = 67

Note how the points on the graph seem to match up with these values.  If we evaluate following the same style for each:

f(3) = 11(3) + 1 = 34

f(4) = 11(4) + 1 = 45

f(5) = 11(5) + 1 = 56

Note, these values seems to be very close in approximation to the graph points for each month.

The other three functions return values that are just to far away from what are represented in the graph.

Cheers.
