Answer:
45 horseshoe crabs and 45 sea stars
Step-by-step explanation:
The aquarium initially contained x crabs and x sea stars.
"After 15 horseshoe crabs and 27 sea stars are removed the ratio of horseshoe crabs to sea stars is 5:3"
(x-15):(x-27) = 5:3
(x-15)/(x-27) = 5/3
3(x-15) = 5(x-27)
3x-45 = 5x-135
90 = 2x
x = 45
Answer:
x=1
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x and y are supplementary angles, so their sum is 180°.
x+y = 180°
x is 16° less than three times y
x = 3y - 16°
(3y-16°) + y = 180°
4y = 196°
y = 49°
x = 3y-16° = 131°
