4(x + 9) + 5x = 9x - 36
=> 4x + 36 + 5x = 9x - 36
=> 9x + 36 = 9x - 36
=> 9x - 9x = -36 - 36
=> 0 = -72
You can see that the equation doesn't hold true.
So there is no solution for this equation.
Answer is C. no real solutions
will be the function to calculate population every half year.
Further explanation:
The given formula is:

In the given formula, x represents the amount of time in years. So, in order to convert the given function for yearly calculation of population, to find the population every half year the time will be converted into half. This means that instead of x, x/2 will be used.
So the new function will be:

20 students.
40% are boys. (40/100)*20 = 0.4 * 20 = 8 boys.
Girls= 20 - 8 = 12 girls.
25% of the boys wear glasses. = (25/100)*8 = 0.25*8 = 2 boys wear glasses.
50% of the girls wear glasses. = (50/100)*12 = 0.50*12 = 6 girls wear glasses.
Total students that wear glasses = 2 + 6 = 8 students.
8 students wear glasses.
