Solution

Each table is decorated with 10 silver balloons and 15 gold balloons.
Hence, total number of balloons per table is (10 + 15).

Since there are 70 tables and all tables have 10 silver and 15 gold balloons, the total number of balloons is 70(10 + 15).

Hence, the required algebraic equation is x = 70(10 + 15).
