The number of rainbow smelt in Lake Michigan had an average rate of change of −19.76 per year between 1990 and 2000. The bloater fish population had an average rate of change of −92.57 per year during the same time. If the initial population of rainbow smelt was 227 and the initial population of bloater fish was 1,052, after how many years were the two populations equal? The linear function that models the population of rainbow smelt is y1 = −19.76x + 227, where
x = the years since 1990 and y1 = the number of rainbow smelt.

The linear function that models the population of bloater fish is y2 ='

Use addition and subtraction to simplify the following polynomials. a. add polynomials: (3 – 4x + 8x^2) + (–6 + 2x – 5x^2) step 1: rewrite the polynomials without the parentheses. step 2: write the polynomial in descending order and use parentheses around like terms. step 3: add the like terms identified in step 2 to simplify the polynomial. b. subtract polynomials: (3x – 5 – 7x^2) – (–2 + 6x^2 – 5x) step 1: rewrite the polynomials without the parentheses. remember to multiply each term in the second parentheses by –1. show your work. step 2: write the polynomial in descending order and use parentheses around like terms. step 3: add the like terms identified in step 2 to simplify the polynomial.
