One way is to find common factors
example
8/6=4/3 because 8/6, 8 and 6 have common factor of 2 so divide that out to get 4/3
basically divide the LCM from each
so factor
we can combine 36m-48m into -12m
we have
-12m/6m
common factor is 6m
-12m/6m=(-2)/1 times (6m)/(6m)=-2 times 1=-2
answer is -2
Given that the number of years should be represented with x, the number of fish in the pond after x years should best be represented with f(x). The equation that would best show the given scenario in the problem above is,
f(x) = 500(2^x)
From the given, 500 is used as the initial population of the fish.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
let the numbers be x,x+1,x+2 (x<x+1<x+2)
2x+3(x+2)=126
2x+3x+6=126
5x=126-6
5x=120
x=120/5=24
numbers are 24,24+1,24+2
or 24,25,26
