Answer: There are 99 three-legged-cows  and 28 chickens.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of three-legged-cows and y be the number of chickens.

Number of legs in chicken = 2

The according to the question, we have the following equations :-

\text{For heads }x+y=127------(1)\\\\\text{For legs }3x+2y=353------(2)

Multiplying 2 to the equation (1), we get

2x+2y=254--------(3)

Now, subtract equation (3) from (2), we get

x=353-254=99

Put x= 99 in (1), we get

99+y=127\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=127-99=28

Hence, there are 99 three-legged-cows  and 28 chickens.

Matt and Mark went to El Rodeo to have some dinner. Matt ordered 3 tacos and 2 enchiladas, which cost him $4.93. Mark ordered 2
lord [1]

Answer:

The cost of one taco is $0.87 and the cost of one enchilada is $1.16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of tacos be X

and cost of enchiladas be y

So, by using given data, we have following equations

3X + 2Y = 4.93             (1)

2X + 4Y = 6.38             (2)

So, first multiply 1st equation by 2 and 2nd equation by 3, then subtracting 1st equation by 2nd.

= 2 × ( 3X + 2Y = 4.93)       (1)

= 3 × (2X + 4Y = 6.38)        (2)

= - (6X + 4Y = 9.86)              (1)

= 6X + 12y = 19.14            (2)

= 8Y = 9.28

Y = 9.28 ÷ 8 = 1.16

By putting the value of Y in equation 1, we get

3X + 2(1.16) = 4.93

3X + 2.32 = 4.93

X = 2.61 ÷ 3 = 0.87

Hence, the cost of one taco is $0.87 and the cost of one enchilada is $1.16.
