Explanation:

First, the question is not complete, the complete question is as follows

Gwen, an independent consultant, traveled to New York City on a business trip. Gwen spent 4 days in business meetings and conferences and then spent 2 days sightseeing in the area. Gwen's plane fare for the trip was $250. Meals cost $160 per day. Hotels and other incidental expenses amounted to $250 per day.Gwen was not reimbursed by her employer for any expenses. Her AGI for the year is $50,000 and she itemizes but has no other miscellaneous itemized deductions. Gwen may deduct (after limitations).

Solution

How much is the plane fare              $250

How much was spent on means       $640 (160 a day x 4 days)

Subtract: 50% of meal costs               ($320) 0.5 x 640

Hotel Expense was                              $1,000 ($250 x 4 days)

The total is                                            $1,570

Subtract 2% of the AGI                       $1,000 (0.02 x 50,000)

The final deductible expense                 $570

This means the amount that Gwen can deduct from the expenses for the trip after the limitations as calculated above is $570

x=3

step-by-step explanation:

this is really simple i saw that there was only one term (5x) and thought if that was 15 what would i have to multiply everything else to get it there? well if 5x became 15 then x would have to be 3 so plug the 3 in the x for the other equations and you get 15 for the other ones. so there you go. : )
