X + x + x + 20 + 10 = 180
(combine like terms)
3x + 30 = 180
3x=180-30
3x=150
x=150/3
x=50

Hey!
-------------------------------------------------
If a chef bought 9 apples and each pie takes 2 apples then all we have to do is divide.
9 / 2 = 4.5
4 full pies can be made with 9 apples.
4 x 2 = 8 (apples were used to make 4 pies.)
9 - 8 = 1 (apple remaining)
If one pie needs 2 apples, subtract.
2 - 1 = 1 (pies the chef needs to make the last one)
-------------------------------------------------
Answer: The last pie would need 1 more apple.
