Let's assume
number of birds with 2 wings is x
number of birds with 4 wings is y
A nature museum has 2008 specimens of early birds
so,
Total of wings of 2 wings bird =2x
Total of wings of 4 wings bird =4y
The specimens have a total of 4384 wings
so, we get
we can divide both sides by 2
so, we get system of equations as
we can solve for x and y
We can subtract both equations
so,
number of birds with 2 wings is 1824
number of birds with 4 wings is 184.............Answer

Answer:
20 pine trees
Step-by-step explanation:
No of pine trees today = 63
No of pine trees there = 43
So no of pine trees planted today= 63-43= 20
Answer:
Step-by-step
i) a² - 2ab + b² = (a + b)²
a² = p² ; a = p
b² = 16 = 4² ; b = 4
2ab = 2*p*4 = 8p
p² - 8p + 16 = (p - 4)²
ii) a² + 2ab + b² = (a +b)²
a² = 121x² = (11x)² ; b² = 4y² = (2y)²
2ab = 2 * 11x * 2y = 44xy
121x² + 44xy + 4y² = (11x + 2y)²
3/8x=6.
x=6*8/3.
x=2*8.
x=16.
