They are equal because
1 yd=3ft
25 yds= x feet
x= 25*3
feet=75
(16^3 + 16x^2 + 19x + 12) / (4x + 3). Start by factoring the numerator.
(4x + 3) (4x^2 + x + 4) / (4x + 3). Since (4x + 3) is a term in both the numerator and the denominator, we can cancel them out.
You're left with: 4x^2 + x + 4.
keeping in mind that parallel lines have the same exact slope, hmmm what's the slope of 4x - 2y = 3 anyway? well, let's put it in slope-intercept form firstly.

a)
so we're looking for a line whose slope is 2 and passes through 2,1.

b)

Sorry I couldn’t help you much
I don’t know what your trying to find but you basically create an equation, like this
3x+5x=80
and solve which would result in x=10
so there is
30 geckos
and
50 anole lizards
