2x+1=5x-44 that would be your equation
next start to simplify
subtract 1 from both sides so you are left with 2x=5x-45
then subtract 5x from both sides and you have -3x=-45
then finally divide -3 from -45 to get x=15
Answer: 14450
Step-by-step explanation:
15% of 17000 is 2550. 17000-2550 is 14450
The equation would be: y=3x+5
The line crosses the y-axis at 5, so that’s the y-intercept.
The slope is 3 because it goes up by 3 and then 1 to the right, as a fraction it’s 3/1 which is just 3
0.05x+0.02(2000-x)=77.5
0.05x+40-0.02x=77.5
(0.05-0.02)x=77.5-40
0.03x=37.5
X=37.5/0.03=1250 at 2%
2000-1250=750 at 5%
3[x+3(4x-5)]=15x-24; x+12x-15=5x-8 (divide both sides by 3); 8x=7 (move all the x's to one side), x=7/8
