Answer:
2002 pounds
Explanation:
To know the weight of the plane, we need to find an equation that relates the amount of fuel to the weight.
This equation can be founded using the following
Where m is the slope, x1 is the number of gallons and y1 is the respective weight. So, replacing m = 6.0, x1 = 51 gallons and y1 = 2206 pounds, we get:
Now, we can solve for y
Then, we can calculate the weight of an airplane with 17 gallons of fuel replacing x = 17 on the equation above
y = 6x + 1900
y = 6(17) + 1900
y = 102 + 1900
y = 2002
Therefore, the answer is 2002 pounds

Let us say the two numbers are x and y and x>y.
The data we have are;
Difference between the numbers are 12.
3 times larger number is equal to 7 times smaller number.
Then we can write;
 ----(1)
 ----(2)
From (1) we can say 
Then substituting  to (2) gives;




Then;


There is no picture but ok
(2x - 5) (5x - 10)
Use FOIL
10x² - 20x - 25x + 50
10x² - 45x + 50
5( 2x² - 9x + 10)
2x -5
x -2
5(2x - 5)(x -2)
make each equal to 0
2x - 5 = 0
x - 2 = 0
2x - 5 = 0 x - 2 = 0
2x - 5 (+5) = 0 x - 2 (+2) = 0 (+2)
2x = 5 x = 2
x = 5/2
x = 5/2 , 2
hope this helps
