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

Supposef(0) = 2 and 2 ≤ f '(x) ≤ 7for all x in the interval [−5, 5]. determine the greatest and least possible values of f(2).le
IgorC [24]

If the slope of the function is 2, the amount it can change over the interval 0–2 is

... 2×2 = 4 units

If the slope is 7, the amount it can change over the interval 0–2 is

... 2×7 = 14 units


The least possible value of f(2) is 2+4 = 6.

The greatest possible value of f(2) is 2+14 = 16.

Write an expression that represents n plus 7 multiplied by 3.
diamong [38]
The <span>expression that represents n plus 7 multiplied by 3 is
(n + 7)(3)
The entire expression, (n + 7) is multiplied by 3 since it would be inconvenient to state the expression as given above if what is meant was
(n + 7x3). It would have simply been n plus 21.</span>

Lisa Purchased almonds for $3.50 per pound. She spent a total of $24.50. how many pounds of almond did she purchase?
Margaret [11]

Answer:

7 pounds of almond

Step-by-step explanation:

It is $3.50 per pound.

If she spent a total of $24.50, just divide 24.50 by 3.50

\frac{24.50}{3.50} = 7

We can verify this by multiplying 3.50 by 7 which gives us 24.50

Can anyone help me out? Steps would be useful but not needed. Its Trig-Missing Sides.
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

10.3 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall: SOHCAHTOA

Reference angle = 69°

Side length Opposite to reference angle = x

Hypotenuse length = 11

Thus, apply the trigonometric ratio, SOH:

Sin 69 = Opp/Hyp

Substitute

Sin 69 = x/11

11 × Sin 69 = x

10.2693847 = x

x = 10.3 units (nearest tenth)

Please help me What is the mode of the data shown in this stem-and-leaf plot?
monitta
<h3>Answer:  24</h3>

Explanation:

The mode corresponds directly to the most frequent leaf, ie the leaf that shows up the most. This is because the mode itself is the most frequent value of a list of numbers. Be sure to keep the rows separate. The leaf "5" shows up twice, but it's for two different stems. The leaf "7" is a similar story.

In row two, we have the leaf "4" show up three times which is the most of any leaf for any given stem. Tie that leaf to the stem 2 and we get the value 24.

The mode is 24.
