Answer:
x = -9/22 or -0.409 to the nearest thousandth.
Step-by-step explanation:
Cross multiplying we get:
(3x + 1)(x - 5) = (3x + 2)(x + 2)
3x^2 - 14x - 5 = 3x^2 +8x + 4
3x^2 - 3x^2 - 14x - 8x = 4 + 5
-22x = 9
x = -9/22
Answer:
2520
Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Find fraction of snappers and catfish:</u>
1/3 + 2/9 = 3/9 + 2/9 = 5/9
<u>Find fraction of goldfish:</u>
