According to the water surface area rule, a fish tank can be stocked with one inch of fish for each twelve square inches of
surface area. The fish that you are interested in putting in your
fish tank are each 2 inches. Your fish tank has a surface area of
576 square inches. According to the water surface area rule,
what is the maximum number of fish you can put in your tank?

24 fishes

Step-by-step explanation:

If for 1 inch of fish corresponds 12 square inches of  surface area, then for 2 inches correspond 24 square inches. Given that each fish is 2 inches, then for 1 fish 24 square inches of  surface area is needed. To know how many fish you can put in your tank, we need to solve the following proportion:

1 fish / x fish = 24 square inches / 576 square inches

x = 576/24

x = 24 fishes

g = (2, 2)

step-by-step explanation:

given the ratio is 1 : 1 then f is the midpoint of eg

let the coordinates of g = (x, y)

using the midpoint formula

(0 + x) = 1 ( multiply both sides by 2 )

0 + x = 2 ⇒ x = 2

similarly

(4 + y) = 3 ( multiply both sides by 2 )

4 + y = 6 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

y = 2

coordinates of g = (2, 2)
