We are given the following equation and want to find the possible values of x

Subtract both sides by 3x


Now, we have this weird equation. Since -15 is NOT equal 15 and there is no other way we could have solved for x, there is no real solution to the given equation.
In other words, there is no value of x that makes the equation true.
Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!

Answer:
The answer to your question is Final temperature = 60.3°F
Step-by-step explanation:
I include the process in the attachment
Y - 10 =(-1/3) ( X - 10 )
Y = ( -1/3) X + ( 40/3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
The basic form of Slope Intercept equation is

Step 2:
Points are (10,10) and m=-1/3
Y-10 = (-1/3)(X-10)
Y = ( (-X + 10 )/3) + 10
Y =( - X / 3 ) +( 40 / 3)

It is usual to represent ratios in their simplest form so that we are not operating with large numbers. Reducing ratios to their simplest form is directly linked to equivalent fractions.
For example: On a farm there are 4 Bulls and 200 Cows. Write this as a ratio in its simplest form.
Bulls <span>: </span>Cows
4 <span>: </span>200
If we halve the number of bulls then we must halve the number of cows so that the relationship between the bulls and cows stays constant. This gives us:
Bulls <span>: </span>Cows
2 <span>: </span>100
Halving again gives us
1 <span>: </span>50
So the ratio of Bulls to Cows equals 1 : 50. The ratio is now represented in its simplest form.
An example where we have 3 quantities.
On the farm there are 24 ducks, 36 geese and 48 hens.
Ratio of ducks <span>: </span>geese <span>: </span>hens
24 <span>: </span>36 <span>: </span>48
Dividing each quantity by 12 gives us
2 <span>: </span>3 : 4
So the ratio of ducks to geese to hens equals 2 : 3 : 4 which is the simplest form since we can find no further common factor.
