Answer:

20 rabbits, 10 chickens

Step-by-step explanation:

Because chickens and rabbits each have 2 eyes, the number of animals is 60 ÷ 2 = 30.

Let's say that all of the 30 animals are chickens. There would be a total of 30 × 2 = 60 legs.

So the extra (100 – 60) = 40 legs must have come from the rabbits.

Every rabbit has (4 – 2) = 2 more legs than a chicken.

So there are 40 ÷ 2 = 20 rabbits and 30 – 20 = 10 chickens.

Answer: y = - 0.4 x - 4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation y=mx+b

m is the slope

x is *ANY* x coordinate

y is *ANY* y coordinate

b is y intercept or WHERE the point is on the Y AXIS

Lets look at the given:

Slope (m) is -2/5

Passes through point 15, -9/2

As you can see, the point goes through the Y axis at (-9/2)

Our equation is y = - 0.4 x - 4.5
