Am eastern cotttentail rabbit and ferret weigh 7 lbs together. The ferret weighs 2 lbs more than the rabbit. Create a system of
equations to represent the scanario. How much does each weigh. If the answer is not an integer write as a decimal.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The first equation is the weights of the rabbit and the ferret together which is
r + f = 7.
The second equation puts the weight of the ferret in terms of the rabbit. If the ferret's weight is 2 pounds more than the rabbit, then
f = r + 2 (the word "is" means equals). Since we know what f is equal to, we will sub it into the first equation and solve for r:
r + (r + 2) = 7 and
2r + 2 = 7 and
2r = 5 so
r = 2.5 pounds.
A rabbit weights 2.5 pounds and the ferret weights 7 - 2.5 which is 4.5 pounds.

Answer:
2/3 + 3/4 = 1 52/125. That plus 3 is 4 / 52/125. Sorry if this isn't the right answer.
Answer:
1/12
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability of landing heads is 1/2, the probability of rolling a 3 is 1/6. Multiply them to get the answer.
Hope this helped!
Answer:
c x ≤ 6
Step-by-step explanation:
2x ≤ 12
Divide each side by 2
2x/2 ≤ 12/2
x ≤ 6
