divide 111 in half

111/2 = 55.5

take the whole number above and below 55.5

so you get 55 and 56

55 + 56 = 111

56 is the larger one

What is the solution to the system of equations? 6x – 9y = 16 2x – 3y = 7

kifflom [539]

The first step for solving this problem is to multiply both sides of the bottom equation by -3.
$\left \{ {{6x-9y=16} \atop {-6x + 9y = -21}} \right.$
Add the two equations together.
6x - 9y - 6x + 9y = 16 - 21
Eliminate the opposites.
-9y + 9y = 16 - 21
Remember that the sum of two opposites equals 0,, so the equation becomes the following:
0 = 16 - 21
Calculate the difference on the right side of the equation.
0 = -5
This means that the statement $\left \{ {{6x-9y=16} \atop {2x-3y=7}} \right.$ is false for any value of x and y. That means that the answer to your question is (x,y) ∈ ∅,, or no solution.
Let me know if you have any further questions.

On Aaron’s farm, 1/10 of the animals are cows, ⅖ of the animals are chickens,

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

There are 5 pigs on Aaron's farm

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Start with 40 animals

2. 1/10 of the animals are cows, so divide 40 by 10 and you will find that 4 of the animals are cows

3. 2/5 of the animals are chickens, so multiple 40 by 2 to get 80 and then divide 80 by 5 and you will find that 16 of the animals are chickens

4. Subtract the 4 cows and 16 chickens from the 40 total animals and you find there are 20 more animals that are neither cows nor chickens

5. Of the 20 remaining animals, 1/4 are pigs, so divide 20 by 4 and you will find that there are 5 pigs
