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

Beatrice calculated the slope between two pairs of points.
kumpel [21]

Answer:

The answer in the procedure

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

step 1

Find the slope between (-3, -2) and (1, 0)

m=\frac{0+2}{1+3}

m=\frac{2}{4}=\frac{1}{2}

Find the equation of the line

y-y1=m(x-x1)

with m and the point (1,0)

substitute

y-0=\frac{1}{2}(x-1)

y=\frac{1}{2}x-\frac{1}{2}

step 2

Find the slope between (-2, -1) and (4, 2)

m=\frac{2+1}{4+2}

m=\frac{3}{6}=\frac{1}{2}

Find the equation of the line

y-y1=m(x-x1)

with m and the point (4,2)

substitute

y-2=\frac{1}{2}(x-4)

y=\frac{1}{2}x-2+2

y=\frac{1}{2}x

<em>Compare the equation of the two lines</em>

The two lines are parallel, because their slope is the same, but are different lines

therefore

Beatrice's conclusion is incorrect

All of these points are not on the same line, because are different parallel lines

The slope between (-2,-1) and (1,0) is equal to \frac{1}{2}

A contemporary building has a window in the shape of a parallelogram with a base of 90 in and an adjacent side of 40 in. How man
BaLLatris [955]

260 inches of trim are needed to surround the​ window.

<h3 /><h3>What is the surface area?</h3>

The total land area of all the faces of a three-dimensional object is its surface area. When we wish to wrap something in real life, we employ the notion of surface areas of distinct things.

Actually, all we need is a trim that is the same size as our window and equal to the parallelogram's circumference, which is

The sum of the side is;

⇒Length of lower side + Length of the upper side

⇒ 90+90

⇒180 inches

The sum of adjacent sides;

Sum of adjacent sides  =  40+40

Sum of adjacent sides  = 80 inches

The length you should trim is needed to surround the​ window is found as;

⇒ 180 inches + 80 inches

⇒260 inches

Hence,260 inches of trim are needed to surround the​ window.
