For this case what we can do is the following rule of three:
 152 -----> 2
 x --------> 20
 We clear the value of x:
 x = (20/2) * (152)
 x = 1520 tons
 Answer: 
 in order to locate 20 ounces of diamonds the company needs: 
 x = 1520 tons of rock

What are the values of x in the equation x(x+6)=4(x+6)
Gwar [14]
Since both sides has same factor (x+6), we can set (x+6) equal to 0.

So we would have one of solution x = -6. (because this would have us x·0 = 4·0 )

Now when x is NOT equal to -6, we can divide both sides by (x+6), leaving us 

x = 4

So answer is x = -6 or 4.
