x is some whole number so 3x represents the number of apples, 5x is the number of oranges and 6x is the number of ponkans. The numbers 3x, 5x and 6x are also whole numbers as well. They add up to 256 total pieces of fruit. Solve the equation below for x

3x+5x+6x = 256

14x = 256

14x/14 = 256/14

x = 18.29

since x is not a whole number, there is something wrong with the initial problem. Please double check to make sure there isn't a typo.

andrey2020 [161]

The first step is to section the given daigram. It would be shown in the diagram below

Looking at the diagram,

Area of family room = 5.5 * 24 = 132 square feet

Area of hallway = 15.5 * 4 = 62 square feet

Total area to be covered with carpet is

132 + 62 = 194 square feet

Since the cost per square foot is $4, then the cost of putting carpet in the family room and hallway is

194 * 4 = $776* 4 = $776

You know that 6x+3 equals 45 because the two sides are equal. So you first put the equation 6x+3=45. Then you use the subtraction property of equality and subtract 3 from both sides. This gives you 6x=42. Then you divide 6 from both sides to get you final answer, x=7
