10 rows because that's right
Ahh it’s the second option I believe!!
It also belongs to set of natural numbers.
So first create and define your variables:
Z = amount of zebra fish
N = amount of neon tetras
Now create your equations:
2z+2.15n=31.20
z+n=15
This is your system. There are multiple methods to use but in this problem I’ll use the substitution method by simplifying the bottom equation.
2z+2.15n=31.20
z=15-n
Now I’ll plug the bottom equation into the top one.
2(15-n)+2.15n=31.20
And just solve from here.
30-2n+2.15n=31.20
0.15n=1.20
n=8
So he bout 8 neon tetras, and 15-8= 7, so he bought 7 zebra fish
Basically you need to find what 15% of 136.45 is. You do this by changing the percent to a decimal, so 15% would be .15. Following this, you would multiply 136.45*.15. This will give your answer.
