Mathematics

6 0

we have

\frac{6x-5}{2}=2x+6

step 1

Multiply by 2 both sides

\begin{gathered} 6x-5=2(2x+6) \\ 6x-5=4x+12 \end{gathered}

step 2

Group terms

6x-4x=12+5

Combine like terms

2x=17

divide by 2 both sides

\begin{gathered} x=\frac{17}{2} \\ x=8.5 \end{gathered}

Verify

substitute the value of x in the original expression

\begin{gathered} \frac{6(8.5)-5}{2}=2(8.5)+6 \\ 23=23 \end{gathered}

is ok

the value of x satisfy the equation

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

Number of pine trees = 45

Number of oak trees = 30

solution

we want area have same number of both trees

so we get here greatest number of area

we find here  greatest common factor of 45 and 30

so Prime factorization of 45 and 30 are

45 = 3 × 3 ×  5

30 = 2 × 3 ×  5

as here GCF = 5

so here greatest number of areas that can be created=5
