Your answer is x = 3 because if you take 150 and subtract it by both sides:
150 - 35x = 45
-150 -150
you have to cross out both 150 and -150, take 45 and subtract 150 which will give you -105.
-35x = -105
take -35 and divide by both sides. Cross out the two -35's. Take -105/-35 which your answer is x = 3. Hopes this helps. :)

You haven’t provided any option, however I think I can still help.
You can solve 4(3-6). You first deal with he parenthesis, and get 4(-3). This means that your expression is equivalent to -12.
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
Correct, it is 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Because 3 turns into 9, you also want to multiply the other by 3, so you’d do 5x3 to get 15
The first book you select can be any one of 700.
. . . For each of those ...
The second book can be any one of the other 699.
. . . For each of those ...
The third book can be any one of the remining 698.
The total number of ways to gather three books from the shelves into your hands is (700 · 699 · 698) = <em>341,531,400 ways</em> .
<em>BUT ...</em>
When you bring three books to the check-out counter, Marian the Librarian doesn't know in which order you took them down off the shelves. You could have gathered the same three books in (3 · 2 · 1) = 6 different ways.
So, even though there are 341,531,400 ways to<em> </em>gather up three books, there are only (341,531,400 / 6) = 56,921,900 different GROUPS of three books that you can choose to take home.
