X = 1/2 and x is also equal to 1/5
Answer:
The pattern is that, every time a 9 is added. This pattern continuous forever.
Step-by-step explanation:
9 X 1 = 9
9 X 2 = 18 (9+9)
9 X 3 = 27 (9+9+9)

Answer: old McDonald has 54 chickens and 2 cows.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of chickens that old McDonald have.
Let y represent the number of cows that old McDonald have.
He counted 56 heads. A chicken and a cow has one head each. It means that
x + y = 56
He counted 116 legs. A chicken has 2 legs and a cow has 4 legs. It means that
2x + 4y = 116 - - - - - - - - -1
Substituting x = 56 - y into equation 1, it becomes
2(56 - y) + 4y = 116
112 - 2y + 4y = 116
- 2y + 4y = 116 - 112
2y = 4
y = 4/2 = 2
x = 56 - y = 56 - 2
x = 54
Answer:
on example 1, both are right triangles.
