Explanation:

Louisiana´s history of trapping has played an important role in the state´s culture and economy.  

French exploration of the area of Upper Louisiana (the French territory in the upper Mississippi River Valley) initiated with the 1673 expedition of Louis Joliet and Jacques Marquette, which charted the upper Mississippi. Colonists from French Canada were the first to settle in the area. French settlers were attracted by the availability of arable farmland as well as by the forests, with plentiful animals suitable for hunting and trapping.

In the 1720s New Orleans was a major trading center on the Mississippi River as well as a hub for the fur trade.

1.3x - 2 - (3.3x + 5) = 2x + 1

1.3x - 2 - 3.3x - 5 = 2x + 1

-2x - 7 = 2x + 1

-7 = 4x + 1

-8 = 4x
