Write the following as algebraic expressions:
total of a pounds of apples and b pounds of plums were packed into n boxes. how many pounds of fruit are there in each box?

Since you are putting two types of fruits inside boxes, you have to first add them.

(a+b)

then, since you are putting it into multiple boxes and you want to find out how much is in each one, it's

(a+b) divided by "n"

logv3(x+2)=1

rewrite in exponential form:

logb(x) = y is equal to b^y =x

b = 3, y = 1

now solve for x:

3^1 = x+2)

x = 3-2

x = 1

see the picture for the graph.
