I believe your answer is 8.

Three times a number less than twice the number and nine is seventeen can be written as: 3n - 2n + 9 = 17

Solve for n as follows:

3n - 2n = n 

n + 9 = 17

17 - 9 = 8

Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

The higher you go in the good chain the lower the population.

Explanation:

In the food web, there are only a few sharks since in the food chain they are higher. Just 10% energy is retained in the tissues once the energy is moved from one trophic level to another, and the leftover power is emitted as metabolic energy.

If an animal is high up the energy ladder, the individual has less resources; thus, a few of the highest predators are present in an ecosystem.

Ierofanga [76]
Let's solve your equation step-by-step.<span><span><span><span><span>65+6x</span>+3x</span>+9</span>+65</span>=180
</span>
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.<span><span><span><span><span>65+6x</span>+3x</span>+9</span>+65</span>=180
</span><span><span><span>(<span>6x+3x</span>)</span>+<span>(<span>65+9+65</span>)</span></span>=180 </span>(Combine Like Terms)
<span><span><span>
9x</span>+139</span>=180</span><span><span>9x+139</span>=180
</span>
Step 2: Subtract 139 from both sides.
<span><span><span><span>
9x</span>+139</span>−139</span>=180−139</span><span>9x=41
</span>
Step 3: Divide both sides by 9.
<span><span>9x/9</span>=<span>41/9
</span></span><span> x=<span>41/9
 And finally you divided by 41/9 
Answer is x= 4.555556
