Answer:
2/6 And 4/12
Step-by-step explanation:
both simplified equals 1/3.
We cannot use CPCTC to show that BE is congruent to DE.
CPCTC refers to the angles and sides of two congruent triangles being congruent to their corresponding pieces. The height of a triangle is not one of the given sides that counts in this.
Let C be the number of cats and B be the number of birds.
Each cat has 4 legs while each bird has 2 legs. Thus,
4C + 2B = 22
2B = 22 - 4C
Each cat and each bird has 2 eyes
2C + 2B = 16
Substituting 2B
2C + 22 - 4C = 16
2C = 6
C = 3
2B = 22 - 4(3)
B = 5
2 cats and 5 birds
