Answer:
a) Speed of the cyclist is (2.75/0.4) = <u>6.875 miles per hour</u>.
b) It will take (5.5/6.875) = <u>0.8 hours</u> to travel 5.5 miles at this rate.
- Remember: Speed=Distance/Time
1 Chicken have = 2 legs
1 Cow have = 4 legs
No of cows = x
No of chickens = y
Total no of legs = 4x + 2y = 210.............(1)
Total No of heads = x + y = 84................(2)
x = 84 - y....( from (2) )
Substituting the above equation in (1)
4 ( 84 - y) + 2y = 210
336 - 4y + 2y = 210
336 - 2y = 210
-2y = -126
= y = 63
No of cows = 84-63 = 21
∴ <u><em>Total no of cows = 21</em></u>
<u><em>Total no of chickens = 63</em></u>

7:3
7+3=10
60/10=6
6*7=42
6*3=18
42 cars
18 trucks
