Answer:
x is 8 and -2
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you need to get rid of the fraction by multiplying both sides by 20 and you would get:
4(x + 2) = 5(x + 6)
Now, you need to get rid of the parenthesis by distributing:
4x + 8 = 5x + 30
Subtract both sides by 5x:
-x + 8 = 30
Subtract both sides by 8:
-x = 22
Now, divide both sides by -1:
x = -22
P.S.: You don't really need a calculator to solve.
5 x 4 = 20 + 5 = 25
5 x 4 = 20 (black cats), and if you add the number of white cats to that(5) you get 25. So zoe has 20 more black cats than she does white cats
The answer would be 78 and 80 because it between those two numbers
