Answer:

8 crabs and 2 octopi

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c represent the amount of crabs and o represent the amount of octopi.

We can use this to set up a system of equations:

6c+8o=64

c=4o

We can solve this system using substitution. In this case, we can substitute 4o for c:

6(4o)+8o=64

24o+8o=64

Combine like terms

32o=64

Divide both sides by 32

o=2

Substitute 2 for o to solve for c:

c=4o=4(2)=8

There are 8 crabs and 2 octopi

15x-7=2+12x I need help with this

Amanda [17]

Answer:

$\huge{ \boxed{ \bold{ \tt{x = 3}}}}$

<h3>♁ Question : Solve for x</h3>

15x - 7 = 2 + 12x

<h3>♁ Step - by - step explanation</h3>

$\text{15x - 7 = 2 + 12x}$

Move 12x to L.H.S ( Left Hand Side ) and change it's sign

➛ $\sf{15x - 12x - 7 = 2}$

Move 7 to R.H.S ( Right Hand Side) and change it's sign

➛ $\sf{15x - 12x = 2 + 7}$

Subtract 12x from 15x

Remember that only coefficients of like terms can be added or subtracted.

➛ $\sf{3x = 2 + 7}$

Add the numbers : 2 and 7

➛ $\sf{3x = 9}$

Divide both sides by 3

➛ $\sf{ \frac{3x}{3} = \frac{9}{3}}$

➛ $\boxed{ \bold{ \sf{x = 3}}}$

The value of x is $\boxed{ \sf{3}}$

✄ ✄ ✄ ✄ ✄ ✄ ✄ ✄ ✄ ✄ ✄ ✄ ✄ ✄ ✄

☄ Now, let's check whether the value of x is 3 or not!

<h3>☥ Verification :</h3>

$\sf{15x - 7 = 2 + 12x}$

$\dashrightarrow{ \sf{15 \times 3 - 7 = 2 + 12 \times 3}}$

$\dashrightarrow{ \sf{45 - 7 = 2 + 36}}$

$\dashrightarrow{ \sf{38 = 38}}$

L.H.S = R.H.S ( Hence , the value of x is 3 ).

✄ ✄ ✄ ✄ ✄ ✄ ✄ ✄ ✄ ✄ ✄ ✄ ✄ ✄ ✄

<h3>✒ Rules for solving an equation :</h3>

If an equation contains fractions ,multiply each term by the L.C.M of denominators.
Remove the brackets , if any.
Collect the terms with the variable to the left hand side and constant terms to the right hand side by changing their sign ' + ' into ' - ' and ' - ' into ' + ' .
Simplify and get the single term on each side.
Divide each side by the coefficient of variable and then get the value of variable.

Hope I helped!

Have a wonderful time ! ツ
