To solve this problem, let us first assign some
variables. Let us say that:
x = pigs
y = chickens
z = ducks
From the problem statement, we can formulate the
following equations:
1. y + z = 30 --->
only chicken and ducks have feathers
2. 4 x + 2 y + 2 z = 120 --->
pig has 4 feet, while chicken and duck has 2 each
3. 2 x + 2 y + 2 z = 90 --->
each animal has 2 eyes only
Rewriting equation 1 in terms of y:
y = 30 – z
Plugging this in equation 2:
4 x + 2 (30 – z) + 2 z = 120
4 x + 60 – 2z + 2z = 120
4 x = 120 – 60
4 x = 60
x = 15
From the given choices, only one choice has 15 pigs. Therefore
the answers are:
She has 15 pigs, 12 chickens, and 18 ducks.
Answer:
3.491
Step-by-step explanation:
move the decimal over 3 places.
A vertical line has an equation of the form x = k, where k is the x-coordinate of all points on the line.
You have a vertical line. It passes through the point (-3, 0), so for this line, k = -3.
The vertical line has equation x = -3.
The line is dashed, not solid, so you have either < or >, but not <= or >=.
Also, notice the shading is to the left of x = -3, so all values of x are less than -3.
The inequality is
x < -3
Any graph will work. But, usually line or bar graphs are used to measure.
20 - k/15 = 17
20 - 17 = k/15
3 = k/15
k = 45
