Answer:

9 pigs

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following numbers of heads:

pigs (p) + chickens (c) = 16 animal heads (1)

And the following numbers of feet:

4p + 2c = 50 animal feet   (2)

From equation (1):

p = 16 - c (3)

By entering equation (3) into (2) we have:

4(16 - c) + 2c = 50

64 - 4c + 2c = 50

c = 7

Now, entering the value of c into equation (3) we have the next value of p:

p = 16 - c

p = 16 - 7

p = 9

Therefore, the number of pigs that Henry has is 9.

I hope it helps you!

Find the total area for the regular pyramid.
hram777 [196]

Answer:

  • Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is the hexagonal pyramid.

We know the radius of the base is same as its side.

<u>Find the base area:</u>

  • A = 3√3/2a²
  • A = 3√3/2*6² = 54√3

<u>Given the height and radius, find the side of the lateral triangular faces:</u>

  • \sqrt{8^2+6^2} =\sqrt{100} =10

Each of 6 triangles have sides 10, 10 and 6 units.

<u>Find the area using heron's formula:</u>

  • s = P/2 = (10*2 + 6)/2 = 13
  • s - a = s - b = 13 - 10 = 3
  • s - c = 13 - 6 = 7
  • A = \sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)} =\sqrt{13*3*3*7} =3\sqrt{91}

<u>Total surface area:</u>

  • S = 6*3\sqrt{91}+54\sqrt{3}  =18\sqrt{91}+54\sqrt{3}

Correct choice is B
