Answer:

4 ducks and 5 cows

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets assume that there are x number of ducks.

Since there are a total of 9 animals,

then, there must be (9 - x) number of cows.

Each duck has 2 legs and each cow has 4 legs.

So the total number of legs will be 2x + 4(9 - x).

We are told that there are 28 legs.

Therefore,

2x + 4(9 - x) = 28

2x + 36 - 4x = 28

- 2x = - 8

x = 4

ducks = 4

cows = 9 - 4 = 5

Y varies directly with x, and y = 5 when x = 4. What is the value of x when y = 8?
Tomtit [17]
As y varies directly with x, there is a proportionality constant. As x increases by that certain constant, y also increases. We equate:
y = kx
where k = proportionality constant.
Given the condition, y = 5 when x = 4, then we solve for k:
5 = k(4)
k = 5/4 or 1.25
When y = 8, then
8 = (5/4)(x)
x = 8/(5/4) = (8)(4/5) = 32/5 or 6.4 (ANSWER)

First you wanna distribute the 3 to x and 4
So the problem will then be 3x+12= 27
Then you wanna subtract 12 from 27
You get 3x = 15
Now you wanna divide 3x and 15 by 3
You then get X = 5
