Answer: There are 11 fish she have.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of birds = 2

Number of hamsters = 5

Let the number of fish be 'x'.

According to question, she has 6 fewer hamsters than fish.

So, our equation becomes

$f-h=6\\\\f-5=6\\\\f=6+5\\\\f=11$

Hence, there are 11 fish she have.

There are 5 hamsters. If she has 6 fewer hamsters than fish, that means x-6=5
which means 5+6=11 so there are 11 fish.
The answer is 11

Please help!!! ill mark brainliest

Vesnalui [34]

3x - 1 = 3x + 1

subtract 3x from both sides to get (-1 = 1). This is a false statement so it is: CONTRADICTION

************************************************

4x - 11 = 7

add 11 to both sides and then divide both sides by 4 to get $(x = \frac{18}{4} = \frac{9}{2})$ . This statement is true only when x = $\frac{9}{2}$ so it is: CONDITIONAL

*************************************************

2 - 8x = 2 - 8x

add 8x to both sides to get (2 = 2). This is a true statement so it is: IDENTITY

*************************************************

x + 1 = -x + 4

add x to both sides, subtract 1 from both sides, and divide both sides by 2 to get $(x = \frac{3}{2} )$ . This statement is true only when x = $\frac{3}{2}$ so it is: CONDITIONAL

Find the distance between the two points.<br> (-6, – 7), (0,0)

Elden [556K]

Answer:

√85

Step-by-step explanation:

for this, you will probably need to draw a graph. Plot the points, and then you will notice that you can draw a triangle with one side being the x-axis ( go on to (-6,0) then drop down unitll you hit the point (-6;-7)

// use the pythagoream theorem to find the length

the distance of the leg on the x-axis is 6 (calculate 0-(-6))

the distance of the leg that is dropping down is -7 (calculate 0-(-7))

then we have 2 legs and need to find the hypotenuse.

Pythagorean theorem a^2 + b^2 = c^2

substitute :

6^2 + 7^2 = c^2

36+49 = 85

c= √85
