4.5(4-x) + 36 = 202 - 2.5(3x + 28)
Distributive property
18 - 4.5x + 36 = 202 - 7.5x - 70
Combine like terms
-4.5x + 54 = -7.5x + 132
Add 7.5x to both sides
3x = 78
Divide both sides by 3
x = 26
Answer:
24 birds
Step-by-step explanation:
Let b represent the number of birds at the shelter on Wednesday. Then the cost of care for the 41 animals is ...
5b +7.5(41 -b) = 247.50
-2.5b +307.50 = 247.50 . . . . . simplify
-2.5b = -60 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 307.50
b = 24 . . . . . . . . . divide by -2.5
The number of birds at the shelter on Wednesday was 24.
