Answer:
The total number of unbroken / working slots
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Devin's DVD case has 3 rows of slots, but 5 slots are broken
Also given that the number of slots in a row is x
1 row has x slots
3 rows has y slots
on cross multiplication we get y = 3x
ie there are a total of 3x slots in the 3 rows
Given that out of these 3x slots 5 . of the slots are broken
Therefore the total number of working slots = total number of slots - number of slots which are broken
total number of working slots are = 3x - 5
Therefore the given expression is the number of working / good slots
I think you can take 3 out of the 30 so you'll have 2x10 left, that then turns into 20
Answer: Both the equations when solved have different answers, the solutions for both the equation are given below. In the the first equation 4 (x-3)=16 , 4 is multiplied with both the terms in the bracket. Whereas, in the second equation 4x- 2 = 16 there is no variable to multiply with the LHS equation
Solution:
4 (x-3)=16
4x - 12 = 16
4x = 16 + 12
4x = 28
x = 7
4x - 3 = 16
4x = 16 + 3
4x = 19
x = 19/4
x = 4.75
