Answer:
$7.60
Step-by-step explanation:
Use a linear function (again)
let x = peanuts
let y = almonds
3x+4y=27.45
5x+2y=24.05
Multiple 2nd equation by 2
3x+4y=27.45
10x+4y= 48.1
7x=20.65
x=2.95
Plug in x into either equation
10x+4y= 48.1
29.5+4y=48.1
4y=18.6
y=4.65
4.65+2.95=7.60
Answer:there are 16 goats and 22 chickens.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of goats in the field.
Let y represent the number if chicken in the field.
After a quick count, you determine there are 38 heads and 108 feet in the field. A goat has one head. A chicken also has one head. It means that
x + y = 38
A goat has four legs. A chicken has 2 legs. It means that
4x + 2y = 108 - - - - - - - - - - - 1
Substituting x = 38 - y into equation 1, it becomes
4(38 - y) + 2y = 108
152 - 4y + 2y = 108
- 4y + 2y = 108 - 152
- 2y = - 44
y = - 44/ - 2
y = 22
x = 38 - y = 38 - 22
x = 16
Yupz u b right cuz 8+9 is ur answer Don’t be so hard on yourself take it easy
