The answer and work are shown in the picture given.
Answer:
a) x = 5
b) x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
a) 4x - 3 = 2x + 7 collect like terms
4x - 2x = 7 + 3
2x = 10 divide both sides by the coefficient of x
x = 5
b) 2x + 6 = 7x - 14 collect like terms
2x - 7x = -14 - 6
-5x = -20 divide both sidess by the coefficient of x
x = 4
12 geese left per hour. At 7:30 am there were 18 less geese than there were at 6:00 am. Since there was 1.5 hours between each time, and we know that 2/3 of 1.5 hours is 1 hour, we can solve using this equation:
2/3 * 18 = 12.
