Answer:

741

Step-by-step explanation:

The farmer noticed 21 tagged moles out of the 420 moles he counted. This means that he counted 420-21 moles that didn't have a tag. The answer to that is 399. Then, the ratio is 399:21. That simplifies it to 19:1. Since he tagged 39, 19x39 would be the answer, which is 741.

Answer:

x=-1,-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the given equation with (x+1) on both sides. We'll get,

x+2/x=-3

or,x^2+2=-3x

or,x^2+3x+2=0

or,x^2+2x+x+2=0

or,x(x+2)+1(x+2)=0

or,(x+2)(x+1)=0

or,x=-2,-1
