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

A small-business owner will lease a billboard to advertise her business. The table shows the linear relationship between the cos
soldi70 [24.7K]

It would take about 25 months for the cost of leasing a billboard be the same for both companies.

<h3>Linear function</h3>

A linear function is in the form:

y = mx + b

Where y,x are variables, m is the rate of change and b is the initial value of y.

Let P represent the cost to lease a billboard from a different company for x months. Given that:

P(x) = 100x

For the second company, let C represent the cost, hence using the table point (1, 580) and (5, 900):

C - 580 = [(900 - 580)/(5 - 1)](x - 1)

C = 80x + 500

For the same cost:

100x = 80x + 500

x = 25 months

It would take about 25 months for the cost of leasing a billboard be the same for both companies.
