Let's get the same terms on the same side.
I am going to remove 5x from both sides of the equation by subtracting 5x

5x - 5x -7 = 7x -5x - 17
           -7 = 2x - 17   now lets remove the 17 from both sides
       -7 + 17 = 2x     (why do we add 17?  Think of 2x -17 as 2x +  -17.  Tor remove a negative number we add it.
Now we finally have     10=2x and if we divide both sides by 2

<u>10</u>  = <u>2x</u><u>
</u>2       2    we get that x = 5
<u />Let's check by substituting 5 in the original equation:
5(5) - 7 = 7(5) - 17
25 - 7 = 35 - 17
18      =       18

In the fraction 35/10 what is the product that lies between
RUDIKE [14]
The result of the fraction is 3.5

we can calculate this like this:
\frac{35}{10} = \frac{5*7}{2*5} = \frac{7}{5}=3.5

I think that the question is asking between which two natural numbers the result lies, and the result is 3 and 4: it's bigger than 3 and smaller than 4

Answer:

34

Step-by-step explanation:

F(x) = 2x^3 - 7x + 1

Let x= 3

F(3) = 2* 3^3 - 7*3 + 1

      = 2 * 27 -21+1

      = 54 -21 + 1

      = 34
