Complete question:
<em>Write the verbal statement as an equation using x as a variable. Then solve. 2 more than 3 times a number is 17.
</em>
<em />
The required expression is 3x + 2 = 17 and the value of x is 5
Let the unknown number be x
- 3 times a number is expressed as 3x
- 2 more than3 times the number is 3x + 2
If the result is equivalent to 17, the required expression will be 3x + 2 = 17
Solve the resulting expression:
3x + 2 = 17
3x = 17 - 2
3x = 15
x = 15/3
x = 5
Hence the required expression is 3x + 2 = 17 and the value of x is 5

Answer:
C) 60.
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay, I do math a little bit different than other kids... No worries though, its still correct.
First, find out how many times five can be put into a hundred. You should have gotten 20.
Now, we can use the twenty we got. Multiply 20 by the ratio of the boys. So 20 * 3 = 60.
Girls would be
20 * 2 = 40.
Those two numbers add up to a hundred so its all good. ^-^
Hope I helped!!
X^2 = 12^2 + 10^2
x^2 = 144 + 100
x^2 = 244
x = sqrt(244)
x = 15.62
Answer: $800 because if you have a light that is $2,000 and it loses %10 of its price per month, and June is 4 months away, then it is only $800.
4 x .1 = .4 so $2,000 x .4 = $800
The ratio for this problem is 1:5.
If you are drawing 14 pentagons, you would do 14 x 5.
14 (pentagons) x 5 (line segments) = 70 line segments in total.
The answer is C) 70
