Total Animals = 11
Total legs = 38

Assumed all the animals are chicken:
11 x 2 = 22 legs

Difference in legs:
38 - 22 = 16

The difference in legs between rabbits and chicken:
4 - 2 = 2 

Number of rabbits = 16 ÷ 2 = 8

Number of chicken = 11 - 8 = 3

Answer: There are 8 rabbits and 3 chickens.

Check: 
(8 x 4) + (3 x 2) = 38 legs

Answer:

7.5 square miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Begin by counting the number of squares that the lake completely or almost completely covers. There are six of these, as indicated by an X. Then find the squares which are about half covered by the lake. These are indicated by a Y. There are three of these. The remainder of the squares that contain some portion of the lake are less than half covered, so we will not count them.

Irregular Object

1 square = 1 sq. mile

Each X counts as one square mile, and each Y counts as 0.5 (12) of a square mile.

(6 × 1) + (3 × 0.5) = 6 + 1.5 = 7.5

The area of the lake is about 7.5 square miles.
