Answer: 7 pigeons sitting on the branches,  5 pigeons under the tree

=12 in total

Step-by-step explanation:

Upper branch has x pigeons, lower has y.

Top branch said: "If one of you flies up to us our number will be double yours":

Well, if one of the bottom branch flies up, the top branch will have x+1 birds and the bottom will have (y−1). The top will have double the bottom, so:

x+1=2(y−1)

Top branch said: "If one of us flies down to you, our numbers will be equal":

Now, the top branch will have x−1 and the bottom y+1. The numbers should be equal:

x−1=y+1

Does 17/10 and 12/5 form a proportion?
ki77a [65]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

17/10 is not proportional to 12/5. Proportional relationships are relationships between two variables where their ratios are equivalent.  17/10 as a ratio is 17:10 and 12/5 as a ratio would be 12:5. A proportional relationship for 12/5 would be 24/10.

Hope this helps :)
