Answer:

goldfish is 15 and guppies is 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

let the number of goldfish be x

and the number of guppies be y

so

x+y= 25----------1

and

3x+4y= 86-------2

solve 1 and 2

x+y= 25

3x+4y= 86

from 1

x= 25-y

put this in 2

3(25-y)+4y= 86

75-3y+4y= 86

75+y= 86

y= 86-75

y=11

put y= 11 in 1

x+11= 26

x= 26-11

x= 15

Hence goldfish is 15 and guppies is 11

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Just like 18, continue with 19-21. Solve for x by rewriting each equation in log form.

e^x = 4.9\\\\x = ln 4.9\\\\x = 1.59

When rewriting the form, the base of the exponent becomes the base of the log.
