The answer is the third one (C?) because if you started at 0, you are going below it since you are losing yards, causing you to have less and less yards. Adding two negatives gives you a lesser amount.
Simplify the left hand side by multiplying the terms in the parenthesis by 3/4, i.e. divide them by 4 and multiply them by 3:

Subtract 6x from both sides:

Subtract 2 to both sides:

Answer:
3x + y = -5
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Pre-Algebra</u>
- Distributive Property
- Equality Properties
<u>Algebra I</u>
Standard Form: Ax + By = C
Point-Slope Form: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
- x₁ - x coordinate
- y₁ - y coordinate
- m - slope
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
[PS] y - 11 = 3(x - 2)
<u>Step 2: Rewrite</u>
<em>Find Standard Form</em>
- Distribute 3: y - 11 = 3x - 6
- Subtract 3x on both sides: -3x - y - 11 = -6
- Add 11 to both sides: -3x - y = 5
- Factor -1: -1(3x + y) = 5
- Divide -1 on both sides: 3x + y = -5
750+20(30)=1350
