Answer: the answer is x=72

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: simplify both sides we know 15=x/4 -3 (the x holds a invisible 1)

the equation should look something Like: 15=1/4x-3 then FLIP the equation such as:

1/4x-3=15 then add 3 on both sides so 15+3=18

step 2: our equation is now 1/4x=18  (we see 4 is being divided the opposite of division is multiply) therefor multiply the 18 with 4

18*4=72 which means x=72

Georgia [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

The system of equations for eq 1 which is 3x + y = 118 represents the Green High School which filled three buses(with a specific number of students identified as x) and a van(with a specific number of students identified as y) with a total of 118 students.

for eq 2; 4x + 2y = 164; represents Belle High School which filled four buses(with a specific number of students identified as x) and two vans(with a specific number of students identified as y) with a total of 164 students.

The solution represents the specific number of students in the buses and vans in eq1 and eq 2 with x being 36 students and y being 10 students.

substituting 36 for x and 10 for y in eq 1;

3(36) + 10 = 108 + 10 = 118 total students for Green High School

substituting 36 for x and 10 for y in eq2;

4(36) + 2(10) = 144 + 20 = 164 total students for Belle High school
