First equate 4x+7y=3x,
we get, x+7y=0 ---->equ 1
Now equate 3x=y-2, we get 3x-y=-2 ----->equ2
solve equ 1,2,
We get x= -7/11, y=1/11
It's a little hard to tell what is supposed to go in the middle column. The column on the right can be filled directly from the problem description: at 2 calendar years, the equivalent is 24 human years, and the number of human years increases by 4 for each increase of 1 calendar year.
The multiplier in the expression is obviously 4, as we are told the number of human years is 4 times the difference from 2 calendar years. (each year after 2 ...)
N(t) equals 10(number of days times 3) because it says that the numbers triple everyday afterward
126 1/4 - 78 2/3 =
505/4 - 236/3 =
1515/12 - 944/12 =
571/12 =
47 7/12 <==
