It’s option 4. Hope I’m not too late
ratio of 9:2
means for every 9 cows there are 2 horses
72/9 = 8
8 x 2 = 16
there are 16 horses
Answer:
7 but im not sure
Step-by-step explanation:
First, distribute the (1/2) into (4x+12) by multiplying them.
The equation becomes:
2x + 6 + 5x = 30
On the left side, combine “like terms” through addition.
7x + 6 = 30
Subtract 6 from both sides:
7x = 24
Finally, get x alone by dividing both sides by 7:
x = 24/7, or if you wanted to round the decimal answer, it’s about 3.429.
