Solution

To solve for x, we can substitute the second equation into the first equation.

The first equation is 3x - 5y = 22 and the second equation is y = -5x + 32.

Substituting the second equation into the first equation gives us:

3x - 5(-5x + 32) = 22 3x + 25x - 160 = 22 28x = 182 x = 182 / 28 x = 6.5

So, the value of x in the solution to this system of equations is 6.5, which corresponds to option C.
