Answer:
2000
Step-by-step explanation:
Expanded form:
80 × (20 + 5)
Partial products:
80 × 20 = 1600
80 × 5 = 400
Sum of partial products: 1600 + 400 = 2000.
Step-by-step explanation:
Claim: There's 14 Goats and 9 Chickens!!
Data:
Working with the Provided Information.
Let the Number of goats be x
let the Number of Chickens be y
x + y = 23..... (i)
Since the goat Possesses Two Pair of Legs... Which is a Total of 4 Legs... We say Let its Contribution be 4x.
The Chicken has Only a Pair Of Legs...Which is a total of 2 legs.... We say let its contribution be 2y
4x + 2y = 74 .....(ii)
BRINGING BOTH EQUATIONS TOGETHER.
x + y = 23
4x + 2y = 74
From Eqn i
x= 23 - y
Substitute into eqn ii
4(23 - y ) + 2y = 74
92 - 4y + 2y = 74
92 - 2y = 74
2y = 92 - 74
2y = 18
y= 9.
Substitute y into any of the eqns to get x
x + y = 23
x + 9=23
x = 23 - 9
x = 14
This simply proves that there are 14 Goats and 9 Chickens!!!.
HAVE A GREAT DAY!
Add y to both sides
60=48y+y
undistribute y
60=y(48+1)
60=y(49)
divide both sides by 49
60/49=y
