C=chicken
p=pigs
c+p=13~p=13-c (plug in)
2c+4p=40
2c+4(13-c)=40
2c+52-4c=40
-2c=-12
c=6
6+p=13
p=7
6 chickens
7 pigs

Let p = pigs 
and c = chickens 

p + c = 13  ( this is the total number of animals in the barn) 

chicken have 2 legs and pigs have 4 legs 
2c + 4p = 40  ( this is the equation for the total number of legs) 

now lets solve for one variable using the first equation 

p+c = 13
p = 13 -c 

now lets plug that in the 2nd equation
 
2c+4p = 40
2c + 4(13-c) = 40 
2c + 52 - 4c = 40 
now we reduce

-2c = -12

c = 6 
so there are 6 chickens now lets find how many pigs there are by plugging into our first equation

p+6 = 13
p = 7 

so there are 6 chickens and 7 pigs

A scalene triangle has the lengths 6, 11, and 12. Keyla uses the law of cosines to find the measure of the largest angle. Comple
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

84 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Applying the Cosine Rule (Choice 2 is the correct one)  :-

12^2 = 11^2 + 6^2 - 2*11*6 cos Y

144 = 121 + 36 - 132 cos Y

cos Y = (121 + 36 - 144) / 132

cos Y = 0.09848

Y = 84.3 degrees

Mai has a jar of quarters and dimes. She takes at least 10 coins out of the jar and has less than $2.00.
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

?

Step-by-step explanation:

Problem 1

Sketch or describe the figure in Step 4 and Step 15.

Pattern of small squares. Step 1 has 1 square. Step 2 has 4 squares, 2 by 2 with bottom left square moved to top right corner. Step 3 has 9 squares, 3 by 3 with bottom left moved to top right corner.

How many small squares will there be in each of these steps?

Write an equation to represent the relationship between the step number, , and the number of small squares, , in each step.

Explain how your equation relates to the pattern.

Problem 2

Which expression represents the relationship between the step number  and the total number of small squares in the pattern?

A pattern of small squares. Step 1 has 0 squares. Step 3 has 3 squares: 2 by 2 but missing the lower right square. Step 3 has 8 squares: 3 by 3 but missing the lower right square.

A:

B:

C:

D:

Problem 3

Each figure is composed of large squares and small squares. The side length of the large square is . Write an expression for the area of the shaded part of each figure.

Figure A

Large square with 1 by 1 small squares removed from each corner.

Figure B

2 large squares side by side. On the side of the right square, there are 2 small squares stacked vertically, each with dimensions 2 by 2.

Problem 4

Here are a few pairs of positive numbers whose difference is 5.

Find the product of each pair of numbers. Then, plot some points to show the relationship between the first number and the product.

Blank coordinate plane. Horizontal axis, first number, 0 to 10. Vertical axis, product, 0 to 100 by 10s.

Is the relationship between the first number and the product exponential? Explain how you know.

(From Algebra1, Unit 6, Lesson 1.)

Problem 5

Without calculating, predict whether the area of the rectangle will be greater or less than 25 square meters if the length is 5.25 meters.

On the coordinate plane, plot the points for length and area from your table.

Do the values change in a linear way? Do they change in an exponential way?

Problem 7

Mai has a jar of quarters and dimes. She takes at least 10 coins out of the jar and has less than $2.00.

Write a system of inequalities that represents the number of quarters, , and the number of dimes, , that Mai could have.

Is it possible that Mai has each of the following combinations of coins? If so, explain or show how you know. If not, state which constraint—the amount of money or the number of coins—it does not meet.

3 quarters and 12 dimes

4 quarters and 10 dimes

2 quarters and 5 dimes

(From Algebra1, Unit 2, Lesson 25.)

Problem 8

A stadium can seat 63,026 people. For each game, the amount of money that the organization brings in through ticket sales is a function of the number of people, , in attendance.

If each ticket costs $30.00, find the domain and range of this function.

Given 4 coordinate points — A(2, 0), B(4, 0), C(5, –2), D(1, –2) â€" identify the figure showing a
babymother [125]

Answer:

Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

First we would identify the coordinates of the points before they are rotated.

A(2, 0), B(4, 0), C(5, -2), D(1, -2)

Plot a graph with the coordinates.

We find that the figure appears in the fourth quadrant.

Find attached the diagram.

To rotate the figure obtained by 180° about the origin zero, we would change the signs of the coordinates to become opposite.

That is positive sign becomes negative and vice versa:

A(-2, 0), B(-4, 0), C(-5, 2), D(-1, 2)

This implies that we rotated the figure 90° twice. When this is done, the figure would appear in second quadrant.

Plotting the new coordinates on a graph would give option B.

Complete the pairs of corresponding parts if ABD congruent to EFC.
Alchen [17]
Remember the notation..

When you have a triangle called ABD, the angles may be called in theses equivalent ways>

angle A is equivalent to ∠ DAB
angle B is equivalent to ∠ ABD
angle D is equivalen to ∠ BDA

Then given that the two triangles are congruent, you can say an

angle B = angle F = ∠ EFC

So the answer is the last option of the list.
