4.) 2(x-1)+3= 2x+1
Distribute the 2, multiply the 2 by x and -1.
2*x= 2x (all you need to do is put 2 in front of x)
2*-1= -2
2x-2+3= 2x+1
Combine like terms.
2x+1=2x+1
Subtract one on both sides.
2x=2x
Divide by 2 into both sides.
x=1
We can check this by plugging it in.
2(1-1)+3= 2(1)+1
2(0)+3= 2+1
0+3=3
3=3 <== this works
I hope this helps!

Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
It appears your table includes points (4, 9) and (7, 33). The average rate of change on the interval is the slope of the line between these two points:
m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)
m = (33 -9)/(7 -4) = 24/3 = 8
The average rate of change is 8.
The inequality for this problem is
200 - 2w < 175 => 2w > 200-175 => 2w > 25 => w > 12.5
The conclusion is that Ryan will have less than 175 lbs after 13-th week.
Good luck!!!
