The y-intercept is where on the graph the line is intersecting the y=axis. Slope is in the form y=mx+b (b=y-intercept, mx=how far up and over.)
Answer:
There are 25 chickens and 20 rabbits
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x-----> the number of chickens
y ----> the number of rabbits
Remember that
1 chicken has two legs
1 rabbit has four legs
so
2x+4y=130 -------> equation A
x=y+5 -----> equation B
Substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y
2(y+5)+4y=130
2y+10+4y=130
6y=120
y=20 rabbits
Find the value of x
x=y+5
x=20+5=25 chickens
X is the number
sum means add
sum of half a number and 4 means
(x/2)+4
result is -16
(x/2)+4=-16
minus 4 both sides
x/2=-20
times 2 both sides
x=-40
the number is -40
Answer:
that is the solution
