Answer:

x=9

Step-by-step explanation:

5( x + 7) - 3 ( x - 4) = 7x + 2

Distribute

5x+35 - 3x +12 = 7x +2

2x +47 = 7x+2

Subtract 2x from each side

2x+47-2x =7x -2x+2

47 = 5x+2

Subtract 2 from each side

47-2= 5x+2-2

45= 5x

Divide by 5

45/5 =5x/5

9 =x

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>→Distribute the 5 to (x + 7), Distribute the -3 to (x - 4):</u>

5(x + 7) - 3(x - 4) = 7x + 2

5x + 35 - 3x + 12 = 7x + 2

<u>→Add like terms:</u>

2x + 47 = 7x + 2

<u>→Subtract 2x from both sides:</u>

47 = 5x + 2

<u>→Subtract 2 from both sides:</u>

45 = 5x

<u>→Divide both sides by 5:</u>

9 = x

A celebrity called Wayne East has been having some money problems recently. He is thinking of investing in the greatest record i
fgiga [73]

Answer:

Wayne west would have $5,015 in six months

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for exponential regression model is y = αβˣ

Where y is amount of money in 1000 dollars

           x is time in months

We are given that α = 4.2 and  β = 1.03 and x = 6 months

Therefore, based on this model, y = αβˣ, the amount he would have in 6 months, y = 4.2*(1.03) ^{6}

y = 5.015 × 1000 = $ 5,015
