Let the number of chickens = c.

Let the number of pigs = p.

A chicken has 1 head and 2 legs.

c number of chickens have c heads and 2c legs.

A pig has 1 head and 4 legs.

p number of pigs have p heads and 4p legs.

There are 40 heads.

Equation for heads:

c + p = 40

There are 110 legs.

Equation for legs:

2c + 4p = 110

System of equations:

c + p = 40

2c + 4p = 110

Solve the first equation of the system of equations for c:

c = 40 - p

Substitute 40 - p for c in the second equation:

2c + 4p = 110

2(40 - p) + 4p = 110

80 - 2p + 4p = 110

80 + 2p = 110

2p = 30

p = 15

Now substitute p = 15 in the first equation to find c.

c + p = 40

c + 15 = 40

c = 25

There are 25 chickens and 15 pigs.

Answer:

There are 25 chickens and 15 pigs. I did my research/work outside of brainly. Don't worry, the person above me also got the same answer so we're all good. Either way, I hope this helps you! :)

Answer:

a0) 2

x<0

a1) x

0≤x<3

a2) 3

x≥3

Step-by-step explanation:

As shown in the given graph

function of y is a straight line at y=2 line till x=0

hence a0:

y= 2 for x<0

Then function becomes linear line from x=0 till x=3

hence a1:

y= x for 0≤x<3

Now after that graph of function y again shift to straight line from x=3 onward with y-axis value of 3

hence a2:

y= 3 for x≥3 !

Consider the following word problem. Imagine that Dr. White of the French department, Dr. Black of the English department, and D

Anestetic [448]

A word problem is used to solve problems in mathematics without the explicit use of equations initially.

<h3>What is a Word Problem?</h3>

This refers to the use of words to generate an equation that can be solved by mathematical means.

Hence, we can see that because the question is incomplete, we can infer that there is a relationship that exists between Dr. White, Dr. Black, Dr. Brown, and a woman that does not have brown hair, and equality would be used to solve it.
