Hello! 

For a:

How I would do this, is I would first say if all 46 animals (heads) were chickens, how many legs would there be? Each chicken has 2 legs, so 46 * 2 = 92. The total amount of legs is 96 as stated in the question, so if all of the animals were chickens, the farmer would be 4 legs short.

Now to add rabbits into the equation. Rabbits have 4 legs, and chickens have 2. You want to find the difference between the two, because as you add rabbits to the animals the farmer has, then you have to take away chickens at the same time. 4-2 = 2, so for each rabbit you replace, you add 2 legs. 

Since the farmer is 4 legs short with all chickens, then you just divide that 4 by the 2 legs you add by replacing a chicken with a rabbit.

4 / 2 = 2 rabbits

So that means there are 2 rabbits. Since there are 46 heads in total, if 2 are rabbits, that means there are 44 chickens.

So there are 44 chickens and 2 rabbits.

b)

You can follow the same steps: I'm assuming all are child tickets for now:

3.05 * 100 = $305

And now you find how much money short you are.

498.6 - 305 = 193.6

Next, you find the difference in the ticket costs.

5.25 - 3.05 = 2.20

And you divide to find the number of adult tickets.

193.6 / 2.2 = 88

Since 100 tickets were sold, and 88 adult tickets were sold, that means 12 child tickets were sold.

Let's see which of these best measures the data.
The mean is the average, or the sum of all numbers divided by the total numbers there are.
4.8 + 3 + 2.7 + 4.4 + 4.8 + 9.9 = 29.6
There are 6 numbers total.
29.6/6 = 4.93.
The mean is 4.93.
Let's try our median. The median is the middle number of a sequence listed from least to greatest. I will make the list for you.
2.7, 3, 4.4, 4.8, 4.8, 9.9.
Cross out the smallest number with the greatest number.
3, 4.4, 4.8, 4.8.
4.4, 4.8.
Since we do not have a middle number, we must see what number is in the middle of 4.4, and 4.8. To determine this, we must average. Add 4.4 and 4.8, then divide by 2.
9.2/2 = 4.6.
4.6 is our median.
The mode is the number that appears the most, so let's find the number that is the most frequent.
4.8 is our mode.
The best number that will fit in this to make it work out is 4.6.
The median is your answer, B.)
I hope this helps!

PLEASE HELP I CANT CONTINUE WITH MY WORK UNLESS THESE ARE COMPLETE AND CORRECT
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

1) x=3, y=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

10x + 7y = 9 —— (1)

-4x -7y = 9 —— (2)

(1) + (2)

6x = 18

x = 18/6

x = 3

put x=3 in (1)

10(3) + 7y = 9

30 + 7y = 9

7y = 9 - 30

7y = -21

y = -21/7

y = -3
