Answer:
what do you need help with
Step-by-step explanation:
4/5x + 4/3 = 2x....there are 2 ways to do this...one with fractions, one without.
with :
4/5x + 4/3 = 2x
4/3 = 2x - 4/5x
4/3 = 10/5x - 4/5x
4/3 = 6/5x
4/3 * 5/6 = x
20/18 = x
10/9 = x
without :
4/5x + 4/3 = 2x....multiply by common denominator of 15
12x + 20 = 30x
20 = 30x - 12x
20 = 18x
20/18 = x
10/9 = x
Please see picture above.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The question says that the fish population of an area is being tracked and a certain of 35 were collected,tagged and released.
Later another sample was collected and it revealed that 13% of those fishes caught were the ones tagged previously.
The estimated number of fishes in that area will be:
Let X= number of fishes available in that area
13 percent of fishes caught at the second sample collection were tagged
Number of fishes collected are 35
13/100×X= 35
X= 3500/13
X= 269
The number of fishes in the pond is around 269
