Answer: 7 pigeons sitting on the branches, 5 pigeons under the tree
=12 in total
Step-by-step explanation:
Upper branch has x pigeons, lower has y.
Top branch said: "If one of you flies up to us our number will be double yours":
Well, if one of the bottom branch flies up, the top branch will have x+1 birds and the bottom will have (y−1). The top will have double the bottom, so:
x+1=2(y−1)
Top branch said: "If one of us flies down to you, our numbers will be equal":
Now, the top branch will have x−1 and the bottom y+1. The numbers should be equal:
x−1=y+1
I'm thinking if you are dividing an odd number you might have a remainder it's important because you need to use the remainder, you can ignore it or add it to the number, interpreting numbers means you are trying to find out what you do with the remainder but I'm not always right.

Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
The derivative of the function is the slope
2x^2 - x -1 take derivative ( f ' )
4x -1 equate to 7
7 = 4x -1
x = 2 sub into the original equation to find y = 5
Answer:
f(a+2)=3(a+7)+4/(a+2)
Step-by-step explanation:
To determinef(a+2) you need to substitute a+2 for each occurrence of x in the given function. See below for full explanation.
Explanation:
If
f(x)=3(x+5)+4/x
Then
f(a+2)=3(a+2+5)+4/a+2
Simplifying gives:
f(a+2)=3(a+7)+4/(a+2)
