Is there an article or a text that you have to do this off of??
Hello.
First of all, let the number be t.
8 times t can be written like this:

Notice that the number is before the variable and the times sign (×) is not there.
We can write it as 8×t, but we usually write it as 8t.
The sum of means we add:
8t+21
Now, "less than" is "<" :

Therefore, the answer is

I hope it helps.
Have a nice day.

Turn the information into coordinate points.
Point = (time, population)
Point 1 = (1985, 45000)
Point 2 = (2004 , 26000)
Find the slope between these points using the formula
( Slope)—> m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
26000-45000/2004-1985=-19000/19= -1000
Average rate of change is decrease of 1000 sea lion per year
I hope that helped
2. Tuesday
