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!

kifflom [539]
<span>Assuming the graph is y=-3(√2x)-4 and y=-3√(x-4) the transformation would be:

</span><span>The graph is compressed horizontally by a factor of 2
x=1/2x'
</span>y=-3(√2x)-4 
y=-3(√x')-4 <span>

</span><span>moved left 4
x=x'-4
</span>y=-3(√x)-4 
y=-3(√x'-4)-4 
<span>
moved down 4
y=y'-4
</span>y=-3(√x-4)-4 
y'-4=-3(√x'-4)-4 
y'=-3(√x'-4)-4 +4
y'=-3(√x'-4)

Answer: C. <span>The graph is compressed horizontally by a factor of 2, moved left 4, and moved down 4.

Any help towards finding out Part B and C would be greatly appreciated!
Alika [10]
Part B: I think the relation that has the greater value when x=6 is f(x) = 7x - 15 because:

7(6) - 15 = 27 which is greater than the output of 14.

Part C: the value of x would be 3 because:

f(x) = 7x - 15
6 = 7x - 15
+ 15 +15
21 = 7x
3 = x

Sorry if any of this is wrong.
