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
The form is y=mx+b
3x=-2y+4 (add 2y)
3x+2y=4 (subtract 3x)
2y=-3x+4 (divide by 2)
y= -2/3x+2
Answer:
2×2×3×7
Step-by-step explanation:
84 is even, so divisible by 2. 84 = 2×42
42 is even, so divisible by 2. 82 = 2×2×21
21 has a sum of digits of 3, so is divisible by 3. 84 = 2×2×3×7
