Answer:
1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
5/6-x=1/2
x=5/6-1/2
x=5/6-3/6
x=2/6
simplify
x=1/3
The answer would be d , because you have to add how many of each fish to equal up to the sum of 420 . which is x y . so the first equation is x + y = 420 . then it says he bought 6 times as many parrotfish as he did angelfish so you would have to multiply x which represents angelfish by 6 . to get the second equation of y = 6x .

</span>
<span>x+<span>(x+2)</span>+<span>(x+4)</span>=48</span>
3x+6=48
Minus 6 to both sides
<span>3x=42</span>
Divide 3 to both sides
<span>x=14</span>
Get the next two integers
<span>x,x+2,x+4 or 14,16,<span>18 = 48 is you Answer</span></span>
First, make sure you convert both equations into standard form. Your two equations would be 2x+2y=38 and -x+y=3. Then multiply the bottom by 2. So your new equations would be 2x+2y=38 and -2x+2y=6. The x would cancel out and you would continue solving for y. y would equal 11 and then you would plug it back into an original equation. When you plug and solve for x, you would get x=8. So your answer would be (8,11)
