Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
5x−6=3x+10
Step 1: Subtract 3x from both sides.
5x−6−3x=3x+10−3x
2x−6=10
Step 2: Add 6 to both sides.
2x−6+6=10+6
2x=16
Step 3: Divide both sides by 2.
2x

Answer
a decrease of 0.2 gallons per second
Explanation
The drain was open for 30 seconds.
The water that ran out for 30 seconds = 20 - 14
= 6 gallons
Rate of decrease = (change in gallons)/(time taken)
= 6/30
= 0.2
The rate of change in the amount of water remaining in the tub per second will be the same as the one that ran out since the outlet is the same.
So the correct answer from the choices is "a decrease of 0.2 gallons per second".
3 x
---------= --------- ---------
15 180
15x=540
----- ------= 36 students.
15 15
Steps: Cross multiply to get 15x and 540. Divide both numbers by 15, then you found what x equals, which is the answer.
