21 chickens and  23 goats=44

21x2=42    23x4=92

42+92 = 134 legs

x=goats     y= chikens     goats 4 legs   chickens 2 legs

x+y=44      x=44-y

4(44-y) + 2(y) =134

176-4y +2y = 134

176-2y=134

-2y= -42

-y= -21

y=21

Your Olympic team wins 48 medals in the spring. The medals are gold, silver, and bronze in a ratio of 2 : 1 : 5. How many of eac
Rudiy27

Answer:

12, 6 and 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

Number of medals = 48 medals

The given ratio is = 2:1:5

The total ratio is = 2+1+5= 8

Step two;

Applying the part to all method

for Gold we have

2/8=x//48

cross multiply

8x= 48*2

divide both sides by 8

x= 96/8

x= 12

gold is 12

for silver we have

1/8=x//48

cross multiply

8x= 48*1

divide both sides by 8

x= 48/8

x= 6

silver is 6

for bronze we have

5/8=x/48

cross multiply

8x= 48*5

divide both sides by 8

x= 240/8

x= 30

Bronze  is 30

Answer:

height = 12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallelogram 1:

Area =  base *height = 20 * 15 = 300 sq. cm

Area of parallelogram 2 = area of parallelogram 1

25 * height = 300

       height = 300/25

height = 12 cm

Solve each system of equations by substitution. <br> 2x + 2y = 3 x - 4y = -1
Shtirlitz [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 2y = 3 ( x2 for everything in the equation)

x - 4y = -1

4x+ 4y = 6

x - 4y = -1

Add the 1st line to the 2nd line to get rid of the y:

5x = 5

x - 4y = -1  ( you can pick any line from this system to be the second equation in this step, you can put 2x + 2y = 3 or 4x+ 4y = 6, anything above this step, but to make it simple chose the one you think is the easiest)

Solve for x, then plug the x value into the 2nd equation

x = 1

1 - 4y = -1

x = 1

-4y = -2 =) y = 1/2

x = 1

y= 1/2
