Answer: There are 133 chickens and 20 pigs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of chickens and y be the number of pigs.

Given : Number of heads of pigs and chicken = 153

Number of feet = 346

Since one chicken has 2 legs and one pig has 4 legs.

By considering the given information, we have the following system of equations:-

x+y=153------(1)\\\\ 2x+4y=346---------(2)

Multiply 2 on both sides of (1), we get

2x+2y=306-----(3)

Subtract (3) from (2), we get

2y=40\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=\dfrac{40}{2}=20

Put value of y in (1), we get

x+20=153\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=153-20=133

Hence, there are 133 chickens and 20 pigs.

A rectangle park measures 300 ft by 400 ft. A sidewalk runs diagonally from one comer to the opposite corner. Find the length o
DochEvi [55]

The length of side walk is 500 feet

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that, A rectangle park measures 300 ft by 400 ft

Length = 300 feet

Width = 400 feet

A sidewalk runs diagonally from one comer to the opposite corner

We have to find the length of side walk

Which means, we have to find the length of diagonal of rectangle

<em><u>The diagonal of rectangle is given by formula:</u></em>

d = \sqrt{w^2+l^2}

Where,

d is the length of diagonal

w is the width and l is the length of rectangle

<em><u>Substituting the values in formula, we get</u></em>

d = \sqrt{400^2+300^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{160000+90000}\\\\d = \sqrt{250000}\\\\d = 500

Thus length of side walk is 500 feet

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

112

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that in a study of the stability of IQ scores, a large group of individuals is tested once at age 18 and again at age 35.

Age 18: average score = 100, SD = 15

Age 35: average score = 100, SD = 15, r = 0.80

Let us obtain regression equation of y on x.

Let y be the scores at age 35 and x at age 18

Slope = r(s_y/s_x) = 0.8(\frac{15}{15} )=0.80

The line passes through (100,100) being average of x and y

Hence regression line would be

y-100=0.8(x-100)\\y = 0.8x+20

a) Here given that x =115

Hence y=0.80(115)+20\\=112

the average score at age 35 for all the individuals who scored 115 at age 18, would be 112.

b) Prediction also would be the same 112.
