Answer:
x = ![\frac{32}{3}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B32%7D%7B3%7D)
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that p(x) = 13. Thus, substitute 13 for the "p(x)" in the equation. Then, isolate x by subtracting both sides by
:
![p(x) = x + \frac{7}{3}\\13 = x + \frac{7}{3} \\13 - \frac{7}{3} = x \\\frac{39}{3}- \frac{7}{3} = x \\\frac{32}{3} = x](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=p%28x%29%20%3D%20x%20%2B%20%5Cfrac%7B7%7D%7B3%7D%5C%5C13%20%3D%20x%20%2B%20%5Cfrac%7B7%7D%7B3%7D%20%5C%5C13%20-%20%5Cfrac%7B7%7D%7B3%7D%20%3D%20x%20%5C%5C%5Cfrac%7B39%7D%7B3%7D-%20%5Cfrac%7B7%7D%7B3%7D%20%3D%20x%20%5C%5C%5Cfrac%7B32%7D%7B3%7D%20%3D%20x)
Thus, x =
.
X = B.......x - 17 = A
x + x - 17 = 87
2x - 17 = 87
2x = 87 + 17
2x = 104
x = 104/2
x = 52........so state B has 52 electoral votes
x - 17 = A
52 - 17 = A
35 = A.....so state A has 35 electoral votes

Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Cramer's rule, the value of x is ...
![x=\dfrac{\left|\begin{array}{cc}2&3\\22&-2\end{array}\right|}{\left|\begin{array}{cc}-1&3\\4&-2\end{array}\right|}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%3D%5Cdfrac%7B%5Cleft%7C%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D2%263%5C%5C22%26-2%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%7C%7D%7B%5Cleft%7C%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D-1%263%5C%5C4%26-2%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%7C%7D)
x = ((2)(-2) -(22)(3))/((-1)(-2) -(4)(3)) = (-4-66)/(2-12) = -70/-10
x = 7
