B=h+4, m=h-2  now we are told

b+h+m=11, using b and m found above in this equation gives us:

h+4+h+h-2=11

3h+2=11

3h=9

h=3 and since b=h+4, m=h-2

historical=3, biography=7, mystery=1

Hello there.

<span>A high school student reads four more biographies than historical fiction books during the semester. The student also reads two fewer mysteries than historical fiction books.

Answer: Put the values into an equation.
Historical fiction can be x
The equation is:
x + x + 4 + x -2 = 11
3x + 2 = 11
11 - 2 = 9
9/3 = 3
They read 3 historical fiction.
They read 7 biographies.
They read 1 mystery.

Hope This Helps You!

Step-by-step explanation:

Claim: There's 14 Goats and 9 Chickens!!

Data:

Working with the Provided Information.

Let the Number of goats be x

let the Number of Chickens be y

x + y = 23..... (i)

Since the goat Possesses Two Pair of Legs... Which is a Total of 4 Legs... We say Let its Contribution be 4x.

The Chicken has Only a Pair Of Legs...Which is a total of 2 legs.... We say let its contribution be 2y

4x + 2y = 74 .....(ii)

BRINGING BOTH EQUATIONS TOGETHER.

x + y = 23

4x + 2y = 74

From Eqn i

x= 23 - y

Substitute into eqn ii

4(23 - y ) + 2y = 74

92 - 4y + 2y = 74

92 - 2y = 74

2y = 92 - 74

2y = 18

y= 9.

Substitute y into any of the eqns to get x

x + y = 23

x + 9=23

x = 23 - 9

x = 14

This simply proves that there are 14 Goats and 9 Chickens!!!.

HAVE A GREAT DAY!
