Answer:
P = 61 - 4x
Step-by-step explanation:
According to a recent survey, in 2000, 61% of households had one or more pets. Throughout the next decade, this decreased by approximately 4% per year.
Therefore, if P represents the percentage of households having pets and x is the number of years after 2000, the expression for P as a function of x will be
P = 61 - 4x (Answer)
the answer is 0.2 or one fifths
➡3x - ( 7 over 12)
➡ [12 (3x ) - 7 ] over 12
➡ ( 36x - 7 ) over 12
To find that you would do (such that x is the unknown) 3x+5(x+2)=106
and if you do this you will find that x=12
so the two numbers you are looking for are 12 and 14
