Answer:

x = 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x + 5) = 6x + 4

Open bracket first

2 × x + 2×5 = 6x + 4

2x + 10 = 6x + 4

Rewrite equation

6x + 4 = 2x + 10

Subtract 2x from both sides

6x - 2x + 4 = 2x - 2x + 10

4x + 4 = 10

Subtract 4 from both sides

4x + 4 - 4 = 10 - 4

4x = 6

Divide both sides by 4

4x/4 = 6/4

x = 6/4

Divide both denominator and numerator by 2

x = (6/4) ÷ 2

x = 3/2

A herd of dinosaurs made paintings in the sand with their claws. Each baby dinosaur made 1515 paintings and each adult dinosaur

mart [117]

Answer:

4 adult dinosaurs and 12 baby dinosaurs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of adult dinosaurs be x.

Number of baby dinosaurs = 3x

Number of paintings made by each baby dinosaur = 15

Number of paintings made by each adult dinosaur = 7

Total number of paintings made by 3x baby dinosaurs = Number of baby dinosaurs * Number of paintings made by each baby dinosaur

= 3x * 15

= 45x

Total number of paintings made by x adult dinosaurs = Number of adult dinosaurs * Number of paintings made by each adult dinosaur

= x * 7

= 7x

Total number of paintings made by both baby and adult dinosaurs = 45x + 7x

= 52 x

Again the problem says that the total number of paintings made = 208

So, 52x = 208

Dividing both sides by 52

$\frac{52x}{52}$ = $\frac{208}{52}$

Cancelling out the 52's from the top and bottom on the left

x = 4

So, number of adult dinosaurs = 4

Number of baby dinosaurs = 3x = 3*4 = 12
