7x - 3(-2) = 23
7x - - 6 = 23 (two minuses make a plus)
so it’s gonna be 7x + 6 = 23
Now you have isolate you x, so move everything else to the other side, but remember to change your sign when transferring to the other side
7x = 23 - 6
7x = 17
To isolate x in this multiple, you divide by 7 (because the inverse of multiplication is division)
x = 17/7
Answer:
3x+24 more widgets
Step-by-step explanation:
A company owns two manufacturing plants:
1st plant: 8x+17 widgets;2nd plant: 5x-7 widgets.
To find how many more items the first plant produces daily than the second plant, we have to subtract from the number of widgets the first plant produces the second plant produces. So,
(8x+17)-(5x-7)\\ \\=8x+17-5x+7\ [\text{Eliminate brackets}]\\ \\=(8x-5x)+(17+7)\ [\text{Combine the like terms}]\\ \\=3x+24
hope this helps!

2/3 is your answer to the question
If the goal is to sell at least $1500 worth of tickets then what you can do is add the 12.50+ 6.25 which well equal 18.75. Then you can divide 1500/18.75 which eqauls to 80 meaning at least 80 seats must be sold
