This is the concept of algebra, suppose that the number of cats is x;
number of cats will be x-20
number of rabbits will be 3/2x
thus the total number of animals will be:
x+(x-20)+3/2x=350
7/2x=350+20
7/2x=370
x=370*2/7
x=105.7=106
therefore we conclude that there we 106 cats in the shelter

Enter the value of x that makes the given equation true <br><br>12x = 3
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

Step  1  :

Pulling out like terms :

1.1     Pull out like factors :

  12x - 3  =   3 • (4x - 1)  

Equation at the end of step  1  :

Step  2  :

Equations which are never true :

2.1      Solve :    3   =  0

This equation has no solution.

A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

2.2      Solve  :    4x-1 = 0  

Add  1  to both sides of the equation :  

                     4x = 1  

Divide both sides of the equation by 4:

                    x = 1/4 = 0.250  

One solution was found :

                  x = 1/4 = 0.250
