Answer: 1/4
Step-by-step explanation: take the odds of the first event (1/2) and the odds of the second event (1/2) and multiply them together
7x+8(x+1/4) = 3(6x-9)-8
7x+8x+2 = 18x - 27 -24
15x + 2 = 18x - 51
+51 + 51
15x + 53 = 18x
-15x = -15x
53 = 3x
17.66 = x
Answer:
12 cows - 48 legs
4 ducks- 8 legs
- there are many different numbers you can do but if you want to change the numbers and have more ducks then: for every one cow you take away two more ducks.
Step-by-step explanation:
22 total animals
56 total legs
ducks have 2 legs
cows have 4 legs
12 times 4 = 48 ( 12 cows with 4 legs each cow = 48 legs)
4 times 2 = 8 ( 4 ducks with 2 legs each duck = 8 legs)
