Let no be x

Acc to ques

X + 2(1/x) = 3

X + 2/x = 3

X^2 + 2 = 3x

X^2 - 3x + 2 = 0

X^2 - x - 2x + 2 = 0

X (x-1) - 2 (x-1) = 0

(x-2) (x-1) = 0

X= 2 or x =1

Answer:

Please check explanations

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to interpret the meaning of the slope

The slope generally refers to the change in y values with corresponding change in x value

with respect to this question, we can see that the slope is negative

What this mean is that the rate of change in the level of oxygen measured in liters is decreasing with an increase in the time

This means that as more time elapses, more oxygen is used up leading to a decrease in the liters of oxygen present
