First, we should add 1 to both sides to isolate the variable:
3x = 12
Now that x is isolated, we divide by 3:
x = 4
The axis of symmetry would be x=0
we are given that
3 chickens to lay 32 eggs
now, we can find number of eggs per chicken
number of eggs per chicken= (total eggs)/(total chicken)
so, we get
number of eggs per chicken is
![=\frac{32}{3}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%3D%5Cfrac%7B32%7D%7B3%7D)
now, we can set up following
1.5 chicken : 1.5 eggs : 1.5 days
3 chickens : 3 eggs : 1.5 days
1 chicken : 1 egg : 1.5 days
Since, changing number of chicken won't affect time
time to lay eggs will always remain same
so,
for 1 chicken to lay
eggs
it takes
![=\frac{32}{3}*1.5 days](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%3D%5Cfrac%7B32%7D%7B3%7D%2A1.5%20days)
