Answer: there are 11 cows

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of chickens in the farm.

Let y represent the number of cows in the farm.

If the farm has 30 chickens and cows, this means that

x + y = 30

There are 82 chicken and cow legs all together. A chicken has 2 legs. A cow has 4 legs. This means that

2x + 4y = 82 - - - - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 30 - y into equation 1, it becomes

2(30 - y) + 4y = 82

60 - 2y + 4y = 82

- 2y + 4y = 82 - 60

2y = 22

y = 22/2 = 11

Substituting y = 11 into x = 30 - y, it becomes

x = 30 - 11 = 19

Which equation can be used to show the relationship between the circumference C and a diameter D of a circle
Firlakuza [10]
The diameter is the distance from one side of a circle to the other, if you cross through the center. The circumference is the distance around the circle. The circumference is equal to two time pi time the radius (C=2*pi*r)

Find the center, vertices, and foci of the ellipse with equation x squared divided by 400 plus y squared divided by 625 = 1
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

x^2/400 + x^2/625

(x-0)^2/400) +(y-0^2/625)

x^2=400

X=sqrt. 400

x = 20

y^2=625

y = sqrt. 625

y= 25

a^2-c^2=b^2

sqrt 400-625 = c

20-25=c

The correct answer is c=-5

(-5,0)

(5,0)

40 points” help HLP HL

Answer:

D: {(-5, -4, 2, 2, 5)}

R: {(-6, 3, 4, 1, 5)}

The relation is NOT a function.

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition:

A relation is any set of ordered pairs, which can be thought of as (input, output).

A function is a <em><u>relation</u></em> in which no two ordered pairs have the same first component (domain/input/x value) and different second components  (range/output/y value).

Looking at the given points in your graph, and in listing down the domain and range, we can infer that the relation is not a function because there is an x-value (2) that has two corresponding y-values: (2, 4) (2, 1).

Another way to tell if a given set of points in a graph represents a function by doing the "Vertical line test." The graph of an equation represents y as a function of x if and only if no vertical line intersects the graph more than once. Looking at the attached image, I drew a vertical line over points (2, 4) (2, 1). The vertical line intersects the two points, which fails the vertical line test. This is an indication that the given relation is not a function.

A group of hikers walked 2 1/4 km in 3/4 hour.The distance here varies directly with time. What is the constant of variation?
telo118 [61]

The distance depends on the time.

So now we need to find the constant of variation or the constant of proportionality.

To do so we must find y(the dependent variable) and x(the independent variable).

To find the constant(k) we must find y/x

Since y/x=k

Then 2.25/.75=k

k=3
