Let t be the number of triggerfish and p be the number of parrotfish
t + p = 320
t = 7p
7p + p = 320
8p = 320
p = 40
There are 40 parrotfish.
p = 40
t = 7(40)
t = 280
There are 280 triggerfish.
Check:
t + p = 320
280 + 40 = 320
320 = 320

Answer:

Problem:

Solve 3x−y=6;y=x−4

Steps:

I will try to solve your system of equations.

y=x−4;3x−y=6

Step: Solvey=x−4for y:

Step: Substitutex−4foryin3x−y=6:

3x−y=6

3x−(x−4)=6

2x+4=6(Simplify both sides of the equation)

2x+4+−4=6+−4(Add -4 to both sides)

2x=2

2x

2

=

2

2

(Divide both sides by 2)

x=1

Step: Substitute1forxiny=x−4:

y=x−4

y=1−4

y=−3(Simplify both sides of the equation)

Answer:

y=−3 and x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

  a. 2116 miles

  b. 105.8 gallons

  c. $305.76

  d. cost per gallon = total cost / number of gallons = total cost/105.8

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>a. </h3>

The round-trip distance is the sum of the distances there and back. It is double the one-way distance.

  round-trip distance = 2 × one-way distance

  round-trip distance = 2 × 1058 miles = 2116 miles

__

<h3>b.</h3>

The gas used will be the distance divided by miles per gallon.

  gas used = round-trip distance / miles-per-gallon

  gas used = (2116 mi)/(20 mi/gal) = 105.8 gal

__

<h3>c.</h3>

The cost of gas will be the product of cost per gallon and number of gallons.

  cost of gas = cost-per-gallon × gallons

  cost of gas = $2.89/gal × 105.8 gal = $305.762 ≈ $305.76

__

<h3>d.</h3>

The relation used in the previous step can be used to find the cost per gallon. Divide that equation by gallons to get ...

  (cost of gas)/gallons = cost-per-gallon

For the same trip, the number of gallons is 105.8, so the equation becomes ...

  cost-per-gallon = (cost of gas)/105.8
