The difference between the fertility rate and the death rate corresponds with the birth rate. When you take the number of children that have been born (alive) in a given year, and then minus the number of the people that have died in the same year, you get the birthrate. It can be positive, when there's more born children than people that died, or negative, when there's more people that died than born children.
The answer you are looking for is x = 0 (or undefined)
To solve for x, you would first combine all the like terms on the right side. To do so, add 2x and 2x to get 4x and add 24 and 2 together to get 26. This will give you 4x + 28 = 4x + 26, which you can now solve.
To find x, you would get the x by itself. However, in doing so you would get 0 or 0x. This is because you would subtract 4x on both sides to cancel out the 4x on the right, but in this case, it will also cancel out the 4x on the left. Thus meaning the answer is 0 or undefined.
I hope this helps!
1. Around 1900 the first dams were built on the Muskegon river, and this immediately cause a problem in the ecosystem by being a blockade for the movement of the water species, as well as causing higher mortality by killing them in the turbines.
2. By 1950 more dams were built, and the there were even more blockades on the way of the water species, so their movement was restricted even more, the mortality rates skyrocketed because of the disposing of the oxygen, temperature change, river flows changing etc.
3. Even though the scientists miss information from the period before the dams were built, since the information have started to be gathered it has been very obvious that the main factor for ruining the ecosystems on the Muskegon river are the dams by causing all sorts of changes in the water.
It's another term for hurricane
