<u>Answer:</u>
one solution = 3
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
5x+17=4(3x−1)
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
5x+17=4(3x−1)
5x+17=(4)(3x)+(4)(−1)(Distribute)
5x+17=12x+−4
5x+17=12x−4
Step 2: Subtract 12x from both sides.
5x+17−12x=12x−4−12x
−7x+17=−4
Step 3: Subtract 17 from both sides.
−7x+17−17=−4−17
−7x=−21
Step 4: Divide both sides by -7
-7x/-7 = -21/-7 = 3
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
The only way to have two numbers that are the same and add up to be 15
is if they're both 7.5 , but those don't multiply to be 36. So I guess there's
no answer that satisfies all the conditions of this question.
