Think back to or refer to part 1, chapter 10. from this description, we learn that aronnax is an astute observer aronnax is a collector

Hi!

The answer is an astute observer.

Explanation:

In chapter 10 part 1, we learn more about Pierre Aronnax, and most specifically, that he's an astute observer. This can be seen in many instances, one of them being when Pierre shares that his attitude about God and science is that everything begins with God as Creator.

x=4, y=4

step-by-step explanation:

y=2x-4;

x+2y=12

we can use substitution since the first equation is solved for y

where ever you see y in the second equation, replace it with 2x-4

x + 2(2x-4) = 12

distribute the 2

x+4x-8 = 12

combine like terms

5x-8=12

add 8 to each side

5x-8+8=12+8

5x=20

divide by 5

5x/5 = 20/5

x =4

we still need to solve for y

y = 2x-4

we know x =4

y = 2(4) -4

y = 8-4

y=4
