A lake initially contains 3000 fish. Suppose that in the absence of predators or other causes of removal, the fish population in

creases by 6% each month. However, factoring in all causes, 400 fish are lost each month. How many fish will be in the pond after 9 months? (Don't round until the very end.)

Let x = number of months.

Let y = total number of fish in pond.

6% of 3,000 = 180 fish

We can use an equation to help us with this problem.

y = 3,000 + 180x - 400x. Combine like terms.

y = 3,000 - 220x. Plug 9 in for x.

y = 3,000 - 220(9). Solve for y

y = 1,020.

There are 1,020 fish in the pond after 9 months.

Solve the system of equations using the addition method.
stepladder [879]

Answer:

A) 5x - 2y = 12

B) 3x + 2y = 36  Adding both equations eliminates "y"

8x = 48

x = 6   Putting x=6 into equation B we get

3*6 + 2y = 36

2y = 18

y = 9
