Answer:

The answer is explained below

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a word problem, therefore to solve it the statement have to be writing in form of an equation and then solved.

Let the number of fishes caught by Bryan's son be x fishes. Since Bryan caught as many fish as his son, Bryan caught x fishes

Let the number of fishes caught by Elton's son be y fishes. Since Elton caught three times as many fish as his son, Bryan caught 3y fishes

All together, they caught 25 fish

Therefore it can be represented by the equation:

x + x + y + 3y = 25

2x + 4y = 25

2x = 25 - 4y

x = (25 - 4y)/2

The number of fish caught by Bryan is half of the difference between the total fish caught and four times the number of fish caught by Elton son

Item 1 The value of a car is $23,000. It loses 11.1% of its value every year. Find the approximate monthly decrease in value. Ro
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

<h2>$212.8</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

If the car loses 11.1% per year, we need to calculate how much money is that:

23,000\frac{11.1}{100} = 2,553.; this value is the lost per year.

Now, in order to calculate this loss per month, we divide it by 12:

\frac{2553}{12} =212.75

Hence, the monthly value decrease is $212.8, rounding it to the tenth.
