Answer:
<u>44 cows and 36 ducks.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
x is ducks and y is cows.
Assuming both have 1 head each, we can write:
x + y = 80.
Let's assume each x(cow) has 4 legs and each y(duck) has two legs.
Then we can add the numbers of legs:
2x + 4y = 248 legs
Now rearrange x + y = 80 to:
x = 80-y
and substitute:
2x + 4y = 248 legs
2(80-y) + 4y = 248 legs
160 - 2y + 4y = 248 legs
2y = 88 legs
<u>y = 44 [There are 44 cows]</u>
Use this value to find the number of ducks:
x + y = 80
44 + y = 80
<u>y = 36 [There are 36 ducks]</u>
========================
Check:
Do 44 cows and 36 ducks have a total of 248 legs?
4*44 + 2*36 = 248 ?
176 + 72 = 248?
<u>YES</u>
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
10 x 6 = 60
5 x 6 = 30
60 - 30 = 30
Try y=3/2x + 3/2
rise over run is 12/8 which simplifies to 3/2
and the y intercept is 1.5 or 3/2

Answer:
B.The slope indicates that the percent is falling at about 0.4% each year. The y-intercept indicates the percent in 1985 should have been about 19%.
Step-by-step explanation:
A regression equation is it this form:
Y' = b0 + b1X
I am going to identify the slope and intercept in this equation to help us go further in our solution.
b1X is the slope. The slope usually has an x value multiplied to it
b0 is the intercept.
Back to our question, the equation in this question is
Y = -0.42X + 19.26
The slope is -0.42X.
The y intercept is 19.26
<em><u>The slope has a negative sign, this shows us that the percentage is falling by about 0.4% every year while an intercept of 19.26 tells us that percentage in 1985 should have been about 19%.</u></em>
