3x = x + 17
Add -x to both sides
2x = 17
On the left side, you have 2x.

Answer:
Carmen has the biggest red to green apple ratio
Step-by-step explanation:
Red to green apple ratios are, in order, 20:12, (5:3), 12:10 (6:5), and 16:20 (4:5). 5:3 is the biggest red to green apple ratio because for every 5 red apples Carmen has 3 green apples.
2(x+y)=24
2x=y
Use substitution. If y=2x, than we can substitute 2x for it in the other equation, because x and y equal the same things in both equations.
So using that we get 2(x+2x)=24
SIMPLIFY
2(3x)=24
DISTRIBUTE
6x=24.
DIVIDE: x=4.
If we substitute x into the original equations we get x=4 and y=8. Those are your two numbers.
Have a nice day! :)
