Answer 1

x=3

Explanation:

15+17+5x = 47

if you add 15 and 17 just to make it easier, you get....

32+5x = 47

what I did next was minus 32 from each side.

so you are left with....

5x = 15

divide each side by 5 and you get

x = 3

you can go back and make sure that- that is right by doing 15+17=32 and

5x3 = 15 then add them together, 32+15 = 47
