A. Equation to represent the hanger is 5(x)+2=17

B. We remove two from the right to balance the left side. 5x minus 2 equals 5 x's and 17-2=15. The balances hanger represents an equation that would be 5x=15. 5 x's would be 15÷5 which would give us 5 groups of 3. 15÷5=3 so, one of the x's equals 3. So, x=3

Sorry I couldn't do C. I am so sorry... :(
