Answer
Equation: $3(2x-5) =5x+2.$
Solution set : $\{ 17 \}$
Work Step by Step
In the $\fbox{$Y=$}$ screen, read the functions that have been entered:
$y_{1}=3(2x-5)$ and $y_{2}=5x+2.$
The equation to solve is to find x for which $y_{1}= y_{2}$, that is
$3(2x-5) =5x+2.$
In the table of function values screen,
we find that when$\quad x=17 \qquad $(row 5)
then$\quad y_{1}=y_{2}=87$
meaning that $x=17$ is the solution to the equation.
