4(x+7) becomes 4x+28 you multipli the 4 in parentheses ans 2(x+7) becomes 2x+14
4x+28=2x+14 you move the x termes to the left and other numbers to the right look:
4x-2x=14-28 when you change the sides always change the sign +or-
2x=-14
2x/2=-14/2
X=-7
I used a graphing calculator for this.
The solution my calculator got was:
(-2.625, 0.688) My calculator is very accurate, I don't think the test expects it to be like that.
Let's find the closest coordinates.
"B" is the closest.
I hope this helps!

Answer:
x = 45/17
Step-by-step explanation:
We can move all x to 1 side and all the numbers to another. You can add 8.7 on both sides and get that 2.3x = 0.8x + 4.5. Next, we subtract by 0.8x on both sides to get that 1.7x = 4.5, where we can then divide by 17/10 on both sides to get that x is equal to 45/10 * 10/17, so that means that x = 45/17.

All you have to do is set up the proportions, then cross multiply.
