Answer:
5 pigs
Step-by-step explanation:
A farmhouse shelters 16 animals, some are pigs, and some are ducks. Altogether there are 42 legs. How many pigs are there?
Let us represent:
Number of pigs = x
Number of ducks = y
Our system of equations is given as:
A farmhouse shelters 16 animals, some are pigs, and some are ducks.
x + y = 16...... Equation 1
x = 16 - y
Altogether there are 42 legs.
Ducks have 2 legs(feet) , pigs have 4 legs,
4x + 2y = 42..... Equation 2
We substitute
16 - y for x in Equation 2
Hence:
4(16 - y) + 2y = 42
64 - 4y + 2y = 42
Collect like terms
- 4y + 2y = 42 - 64
-2y =- 22
y = -22/-2
y = 11 ducks
Solving for x.
x = 16 - y
x = 16 - 11
x = 5 pigs
Therefore, we have 5 pigs

Answer:
70/5985
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that a quadrilateral needs to have four vertices (or points on the circle). There are always two ways to link the cross — horizontally or vertically. Using my limited knowledge of combinations, we know that choosing four points out of seven equals 35. Multiplying the two ways to connect those lines (again, horizontally and vertically) makes 35*2 = 70 "bow-tie quadrilaterals" that can be formed on the circle using four points. There are 5985 ways four chords can be chosen out of twenty-five chords because C(25,4) equals 5985, so the probability is 70/5985... and then we just need to simplify that fraction.
