For the answer to the question above, If you've noticed, the statement mentioned "a number". Let's assign x to be the number. The first statement is twice a number (2x). Then, decreased by the quotient of that number and 2 (-x/2). Lastly, the statement at least 12 is written as >12.
So the answer is
2x - (x/2) >12

The variable x represents the number of angelfish Carlos bought and the variable y represents the number of parrotfish he bought

siniylev [52]

X + y = 405
y = 8x

To solve:
Plug the second equation into the first and solve for x.
x + 8x = 405
9x = 405
Divide both sides by 9
x = 45

Use the second equation to find y.
y = 8(45)
y = 360

45 angelfish
360 parrotfish
