Answer:

  • 7 fiction books
  • 23 non-fiction books

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of non-fiction read was 5 less than 4 times the number of fiction books.

Assume fiction books are x.

An equation representing this would be:

x + (4x - 5) = 30

5x - 5 = 30

5x = 30 + 5

x = 35 / 5

x = 7 fiction books

Non-fiction books:

= 4x - 5

= 4 * 7 - 5

= 23 non - fiction books

likoan [24]

Answer:

x = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Traingle ABC = Traingle DEC

4x-1×4×5 = x+2×4×5

80x-1 = 2×20x

80x-20x = 2+1

60x = 3

60÷3 = x

x = 20
