Answer:

x= $\frac{104}{9}$ or 11.5---

Step-by-step explanation:

First, simplify the equation by adding the like terms.

15x+3x=18x

-17+-11=-28

So, the equation is:

18x-28=180

+28 +28 <---(Add the 28 to both sides to cancel out the 28 with opposite operations)

18x=208

/18 /18 <---(Divide the 18 as opposite operation to get x by itself)

x=208/18

=104/9

or 11.5---

Answer:

X=11.5

Step-by-step explanation:

15x-17+3x-11=180(collect like terms & calculate)

18x-28=18(move constant to right)

18x=180-28(calculate)

18x=208(divide both sides by 18)

X=11.5

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of bullfrogs in the population.

We have been given that in a study of the population density of bullfrogs, 25 are captured and marked in the first sampling. Five days later, 30 frogs are captured, 10 of which have marks.

We will use proportion to solve our given problem as:

$\frac{\text{Number of total bullfrogs}}{\text{Number of marked bullfrogs}}=\frac{30}{10}$
