Answer:
6 elephants and 3 kangaroos in the zoo.
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of animals = 9
Number of legs seen = 30
But an elephant has 4 legs, while a kangaroo has 2 legs.
Let the number of elephant be represented by E, and the number of kangaroo by K.
So that,
E + K = 9 .................. 1
4E + 2K = 30 ............. 2
Multiply equation 1 by 2 to have
2E + 2K = 18 ............ 3
Subtract equation 3 from 1
2E = 12
E = 6
Substitute the value of E in equation 1
E + K = 9
6 + K = 9
k = 3
Thus, there were 6 elephants and 3 kangaroos in the zoo.
<span>Since we need to convert “miles per second” to “miles per hour,” we first need to find out how many seconds there are in a hour.
We know that there are 60 seconds in a minute, and if we wanted to do an hour we would have to do 60 * 60 which is 3600 seconds, therefore,
</span>1 mi/57.1 sec = (1 mi/ 57.1 sec)(3600 sec/1 hour)
= (3600/57.1) mi/hours
<span> = 63.047 mi/hours</span>
Answer:
D) 3 1/8, 8 1/5, 8 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
The order of the puppies' weights from least to greatest is the following:
Three wholes are less than eight wholes, which means that the puppy named Kenadi weighs the least.
Scout and Major weigh a bit more than eight pounds. However, Major weighs less than Scout because one fifth is less than one third.
This is why the correct option is D.
