Given:

Ratio of cow to chicken is 6:5.

The nunmber of cows is 30.

The objective is to find the number of chickens.

Consider the number of cows and chicken as 6x and 5x.

The value of <em>x</em> can be calculated as,

$\begin{gathered} 6x=30 \\ x=5 \end{gathered}$

Now, substitute the value of <em>x</em> to find the number of chicken.

$\begin{gathered} \text{Number of ch}icken=5x \\ =5(5) \\ =25 \end{gathered}$

Hence, the number of chicken will be 25.

You can use the identity
$\sin(x)=\sqrt{\dfrac{\tan(x)^{2}}{1+\tan(x)^{2}}}\\\\=-\sqrt{\dfrac{4^{2}}{1+4^{2}}}\\\\=-\sqrt{\dfrac{16\cdot 17}{17\cdot 17}}=\dfrac{-4\sqrt{17}}{17}$

The sign is negative because the angle is in the 3rd quadrant.

This corresponds to ...
a. -(4√17)/17

The fixed fee is $5.75. This part of the equation is called the constant. There are no variable being multiplied or divided meaning it is not being grouped in any way. This tells us it stands alone and represents a number that is non -changing or fixed.

y = total snow accumulated

x = hours

the ground has 0.2 inches of snow before the data starts

y = 1.5x+0.2

0 hours = x = 0, so y = 0.2 inches

after 9 hours, we predict that 13.7 inches of snow will have accumulated

y = 1.5(9)+0.2 = 13.7
