Step-by-step explanation:

1. Using the addition property of equality, we can add 3 to both sides of the equation. Then it can be rewritten as ...

  7x -3 +3 = -17 +3

  7x = -14

__

2. Using the division property of equality, we can divide both sides of the equation by 7. Then it can be rewritten as ...

  7x/7 = -14/7

  x = -2

Additional comment

Note that we have used these steps to solve the equation, find the value of x that makes it true. We could use different steps to rewrite the equation to almost anything you want:

  7x -3 -95 = -17 -95   ⇒   7x -98 = -112 . . . . . subtract 95 from both sides

  12(7x -98) = 12(-112)   ⇒   84x -1176 = -1344 . . . . multiply both sides by 12

The resulting equation is not helpful for finding a solution, but it is an accurate rewrite of the original equation.

the final price would be 29.6925

step-by-step explanation:

39.59 minus 25% equals 29.6925

the solution of the equation is 2.23 ⇒ answer b

step-by-step explanation:

* lets revise the meaning of exponential function

- the form of the exponential function is y = ab^x, where a ≠ 0, b > 0 ,  

  b ≠ 1, and x is any real number

- it has a constant base b

- it has a variable exponent x

- to solve an exponential equation, take the log or ln of both sides,  

  and solve for the variable

* lets solve the problem

∵

- the base is 7 and the exponent is x

- insert ㏑ in both sides

∴

- use the rule

∴ x ㏑(7) = ㏑(77)

- to find x divide both sides by ㏑(7)

∴

* the solution of the equation is 2.23 to the nearest 2 decimal places
