We can solve this using the equation 2x+x=27. The 2x represents Jay, and the x represents Blair. We can simplify the equation to 3x=27. 27/3=9. Blair caught 9 fish, and Jay caught 18 fish. I hope this helps!

Agustin solved an equation as shown. What error did Agustin make? What is the correct answer?
Hitman42 [59]

Subtract 3/4x from both sides

1/3x-4-3/4x= 3/4x+1-3/4x

-5/12x-4=1

Add 4 to both sides

-5/12x-4+4=1+4

-5/12x=5

Multiply both sides by 12/(-5)

(12/-5)*(-5/12x)=  (12/-5)*(5)

x= 12


I hope that's help.
