Answer:
the answer is 8
Step-by-step explanation:
i got this right on my question
Answer:
7 pigs, 16 chickens
Step-by-step explanation:
p= pigs, c= chickens, legs= 60, number of pigs & chickens= 23
System of Equations:
- Equation 1:
would be 
- Equation 2:
for the legs
Then, use substitution & solve:
Now, plug 
back into to get c
Answer: 7 pigs, 16 chickens or and 
- To check your work, plug those solutions back into the system.

You multiply or divide integers just as you do whole numbers, except you must keep track of the signs. To multiply or divide signed integers, always multiply or divide the absolute values and use these rules to determine the sign of the answer.
<span>
When you multiply two integers with the same signs, the result is always positive. Just multiply the absolute values and make the answer positive.</span>
<span>Positive x positive = positive
Negative x negative = positive</span>
<span>When you multiply two integers with different signs, the result is always negative. Just multiply the absolute values and make the answer negative.</span>
<span>Positive x negative = negative
Negative x positive = negative</span>
<span>When you divide two integers with the same sign, the result is always positive. Just divide the absolute values and make the answer positive.</span>
<span>Positive ÷ positive = positive
Negative ÷ negative = positive</span>

Think of asy. as limiting fences to where your graph can travel. If, for example, you graph y = 1/x properly, you'll see that the graph never crosses either the x- or the y-axis. As x increases, your graph will get closer and closer to the line y=0 (which happens to be the horiz. axis), but will not cross it. Similarly, as x approaches x=0, the graph gets closer and closer to the vert. axis, x=0, but will not cross it. Do you see how the asymptotes limit where the graph can go?
Vertical asy. stem only from rational functions and correspond to x-values for which the denominator = 0. As you know, we can NOT divide by zero. Instead, we draw a vertical line thru any x-value at which the rational function is not defined.
Horiz. asy. have to do with the behavior of functions as x grows increasingly large, whether pos. or neg. Go back and re-read my earlier comments on horiz. asy. As x grows incr. large, in the positive direction, the graph of y=1/x approaches, but does not touch or cross, the horiz. asy.I will stop here and encourage you to ask questions if any of this discussion is not clear.
