Answer:

36 fishes

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Nanette goes fishing. Of the fish Nanette catches, 2/3 are catfish.

Let the total fraction of fish = 1

The fraction of fish that is not catfish is

1 - 2/3

= 1/3

Step 2

She catches 12 fish that are not catfish.

Let the total number of catfish = x

Hence,

1/3 × x = 12

Equation is given as:

x/3 = 12

Cross Multiply

x = 3 × 12

x = 36 fishes

The the total number of fish, x that Nanette catches is 36 fishes

Name the three different types of proofs you saw in this lesson. Give a description of each.
Colt1911 [192]

You already have the answer. It is "One type of proof is a two-column proof. It contains statements and reasons in columns. Another type is a paragraph proof, in which statements and reasons are written in words. A third type is a flowchart proof, which uses a diagram to show the steps of a proof." which looks correct to me.
