H-human a-horse
h+a= 72
2h+4a=192
then do h=72-a
substitute that into the second equation
2(72-a)+4a=192
multiple out
144-2a+4a=192
2a=48
a=24
substitute a into the first equation
h+24=72
h=48
humans- 48
horses- 24
Answer:
good luck
Step-by-step explanation:
There are two triangles here: ABC and ADF. These triangles are similar, and thus proportional. So, we can set up a proportion between the left side of each triangle and the base of each triangle.
AB / AD = BC / DE
4 / (4 + BD) = 5 / 9
---AD is made up of AB and DB. We know AB, but not BD, so we need to find its value to find the length of AD.
5(4 + BD) = 9 x 4
20 + 5BD = 36
5BD = 16
BD = 3.2
AD = AB + BD
AD = 4 + 3.2
AD = 7.2
Hope this helps!

Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
3=5x-12
Rearrange the Equation.
5x - 12 = 3
Add 12 to both sides.
5x - 12 + 12 = 3 + 12
Simplify
5x = 15
Divide both sides by 5
5x/5 = 15/5
x = 3
