Answer:
Since a blogger has 400 subscribers to her blog in January, and the number of subscribers has grown by a factor of 1.5 every month since the, to write a sequence to represent the number of subscribers in the 3 months that followed, the following reasoning has to be made:
January: 400 subscribers
February: 400 x 1.5 = 600 subscribers
March: 600 x 1.5 = 900 subscribers
April: 900 x 1.5 = 1,350 subscribers
Given information:
Total animals = 13
Total legs = 40
Assumed all animals have their legs intact ...
Pig = 4 legs
Chicken = 2legs
Assumed all chickens:
Total legs = 2 x 13 = 26
Extra legs = 40 - 26 = 14
Extra legs belongs to the pig (each pig has extra 2 legs)
14 ÷ 2 = 7
There are 7 pigs
13 - 7 = 6
There are 6 chickens
---------- OR ALGEBRAICALLY --------
Let the number of pigs be x and number of chickens be y
pigs = x
chickens = y
x + y = 13 -------------- (1)
4x + 2y = 40 ---------- (2)
From (1):
x + y = 13
x = 13 - y -------------- sub into (2)
4(13 - y) + 2y = 40
52 - 4y + 2y = 40
52 - 2y = 40
2y = 52 - 40
2y = 12
y = 6 ----------- sub into (1)
x + 6 = 13
x = 13 - 6
x = 7
x = 7, y = 6
pigs = 7, chickens = 6
The answer would be D. 56in^2
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
3x=15
divide both sides by 3
x=5
