A farm has only chickens and pigs , Jason counted 140 legs in total and 440 legs. How many chickens are there

Mathematics

Keith_Richards [23]3 years ago

Answer:

  60 chickens

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume the 140 refers to the number animals (heads, noses, bodies, whatever). If all of those were chickens, there would be 280 legs. There are 160 legs more than that.

Since each pig that replaces a chicken adds 2 legs, there must be 160/2 = 80 pigs. That leaves 140 -80 = 60 chickens.

So u already know that the radius is half of the circle which in this case is 28 mm. And both circles at the top touch both sides of the rectangle.
Process:
28x4=112.
This is the top side, but because you could fit 2 circles at the top and you know the measurement, it is common sense to think that it would be the same on the other side. So the area of the square/ rectangle:
112x112= 12,534 mm

In a function, y varies inversely with x. The consistent of variation is 4. Which table could represent the function?
lianna [129]

Answer:

none of the tables shown

Step-by-step explanation:

Inverse variation is

xy = k where k is the constant

xy = 4

in the top table

-2*2 = -4 so it cannot be the first table

In the middle table

-2 * -8 = 16  so it is not the middle table

In the bottom table

-2 *4 = -8 so it is not the bottom table

There must be a table not shown
