Yes, we needed that. I watched another merchant amble away, his donkeys pulling carts filled with jars and bundles. I had farther to go, too. I thanked the river for speeding my journey. Its waters were low, and I watched workers turning lumber like ours into new boats along its banks. In a few days, we would reach Aswan. There, we would trade for gold and animal skins. Perhaps we would find new things, too, before turning around and beginning the trip anew. What was the importance of the Nile River as described in this passage? The Nile River was used to transport many trade goods. Only non-food goods could be transported on the Nile River. People relied only on the current of the Nile River to move their boats. The Nile River was used for transportation when the water was at its highest.
first off you will solve for x so you set the two x equations equal and solve by subtracting 3x and adding 5 to both sides getting x=16 then you plug that value into the equation 4x-5 then take that from 180 and that y which is 121
