Answer:there are 16 goats and 22 chickens.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of goats in the field.

Let y represent the number if chicken in the field.

After a quick count, you determine there are 38 heads and 108 feet in the field. A goat has one head. A chicken also has one head. It means that

x + y = 38

A goat has four legs. A chicken has 2 legs. It means that

4x + 2y = 108 - - - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 38 - y into equation 1, it becomes

4(38 - y) + 2y = 108

152 - 4y + 2y = 108

- 4y + 2y = 108 - 152

- 2y = - 44

y = - 44/ - 2

y = 22

x = 38 - y = 38 - 22

x = 16

Hey!

Let's write the problem.
$2x-4-5x=2$
Add like terms...
$-3x-4=2$
Add $4$ to both sides.
$-3x-4+4=2+4$
$-3x=6$
Divide both sides by $-3$ .
$\frac{-3x}{-3}=\frac{6}{-3}$

Our final answer would be,
$x=-2$

Thanks!
