1 Chicken have = 2 legs

1 Cow have = 4 legs

No of cows = x

No of chickens = y

Total no of legs = 4x + 2y = 210.............(1)

Total No of heads = x + y = 84................(2)

x = 84 - y....( from (2) )

Substituting the above equation in (1)

4 ( 84 - y) + 2y = 210

336 - 4y + 2y = 210

336 - 2y = 210

-2y = -126

= y = 63

No of cows = 84-63 = 21

∴ <u><em>Total no of cows = 21</em></u>

<u><em>Total no of chickens = 63</em></u>

Answer: a) -13/16

Step-by-step explanation: Start by setting equations equal and rearrange X^3 - x^2 + 1 = 0. Visual inspection of graph shows x between -1 and -1/2. Start with x = 3/4 plug in and calculate: just a little too small. Try going halfway towards -1: x =-7/8 Plug in and the answer is very far from 0. Go halfway back towards -3/4: -13/16 and the equality is very close.
