Answer:
6x+4
Step-by-step explanation:
First thing to do is distribute 1/4 into the parenthesis. So 1/4 times 8x and 16. Which will give you 2x and 4. Then add like terms which will be 2x + 4x which is 6x. Then you have the 4 left over so your new equation is 6x+4.
We begin with 1,000 fish in a lake.
Each year the population declines to 15%
Then they put back 500 fish in the lake.
The equation: (1000 * .85) +500
Hopefully I’m not too late, but here’s how I solved it. Basically, replace F with 68. Subtract 32 from both sides so your equation becomes 9/5C=36. Divide both sides by 9/5 so C is left but itself (C=36/1.8). The answer should come out to 20. If you want to check my answer, plug 20 into the equation. Multiply 20x9/5 which equals 36. Add 36 and 32 together to get 68. Hope this helps
