22.5 (shower) = X (variable used in place of the amount of water she uses to wash clothes) - 7.5 (the amount she used in the shower is 7.5 gallons less than she uses for washing clothes)
22.5 = X - 7.5 《 This is the equation.
Solve is by adding 7.5 to both sides to cancel out the negative 7.5 and you get (X = 30).
There must be a mistake in your question:
If 3 x ≤ 9, then : x ≤ 3 and :
x + 4 > 2
x > 2 - 4
x > - 2
Answer: D)
Solution set : - 2 < x ≤ 3
Answer: y= -7x
