Answer:
<em>Beck actually caught 45 fish</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>System of Equations</u>
We call the following variables:
x = number of fish Ally caught
y = number of fish Beck caught
They caught a total of 75 fish, thus:
x + y = 75 [1]
If Ally had caught twice as much fish as she actually did, and Beck had caught three times as many fish as he actually did, then Ally would have caught 75 fewer fish than Beck, thus:
3y = 2x + 75 [2]
From [1]:
x = 75 - y [3]
Substituting in [2]:
3y = 2(75 - y) + 75
Operating:
3y = 150 - 2y + 75
Simplifying:
5y = 225
Dividing by 5:
y = 45
Beck actually caught 45 fish
Answer:
1/1 because you go up 1 and over 1
Can we see an attachment of the problem?
Its 159.25 because u just times 24.5 x 6.5
In order to factor this, we will need to take something out to get it to factor. Lets take out a greatest common factor, in this case our greatest common factor will be 3.
We will then write it as:
-3(5t+2)
