Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>The first equation:</u>
<u>The second equation:</u>
<u>Convert to slope-intercept form:</u>
- x + 2y = 23 ⇒ 2y = -x + 23 ⇒ y = -1/2x + 11.5
- 2x + 3y = 39 ⇒ 3y = -2x + 39 ⇒ y = -2/3x + 13
<em>The graph is attached</em>
<u>Intersection point is (9, 7)</u>
- Adult tickets cost $9
- Child tickets cost $7
2 out of 50 were tagged.
Divide 2 by 50:
2/50 = 0.4 ( This is 4% of the fish were tagged).
Now divide the number of fish caught by the percentage that were tagged:
50 / 0.04 = 1250
The number of fish in the pond is C. 1250
The correct answer is:
[D]: "
" .

;
Simplify the "denominator" ; → (b + 2b = 1b + 2b = 3b) ;
and rewrite:
;
Cancel out the "b" in the "numerator" to a "1" ;
and cancel the "3b" in the "denominator to a "3" ;
{since: "b ÷ b = 1 "; and since: "3b ÷ b = 3" } ;
and rewrite as:
