Let

d = the total number of dairy cattle

b = the total number of beef cattle

2/3 of the dairy cattle on a farm are in the barn, and we know that 24 dairy cattle are in the barn thus:

(2/3)d = 24

d = 36 dairy cattle

1/4 of the beef cattle are in the barn and there are 16 beef cattle in the barn thus:

(1/4)b = 16

 

b = 64 beef cattle

64 - 36 = 28

There are 28 more beef cattle on the farm than dairy cattle.

Answer: y≤4x+3 and y≤-3x-5

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the first line is 4. The slope of (-1,-1) and (0,3) is 4. And the line passes through 3, so the y-intercept is 3.

The slope of the second line is 3. The slope of (-3,4) and (-1,-2) is -3. And the line passes through -5, so the y-intercept of the second line is -5

8 over negative 4 ÷ negative 3 over 9.
yaroslaw [1]
I'd prefer you write this out symbolically instead of in words:

   8                       -3
------- divided by -----
   -4                        9

Why not reduce both fractions first?  We get    -2   divided by -1/3, which is
the same as -2 times -3.  Answer:   6
