Answer: 14 turkeys and a cat
Step-by-step explanation: Getting 32 feet from 15 heads shows that an animal has more than 2 feet. If the 15 heads all belonged to turkeys, we'd have 30 feet (which is 2 short of what was observed). Reducing the number of turkey by 1 and adding a cat balances the number of observed feet. That is, 14 turkeys (with a total of 28 feet) and a cat (with 4 feet). Adding, we have 28+4=32
Answer:
Coefficient. For example, in the term -3x, -3 serves as the coefficient of x.
1. y=4x+5
2. y=2+6x
3. y=8-x
7)
17x + 3 = 54
17x = 51
x = 3
4y - 3 = 57
4y = 60
y = 15
8)
4x - 3 = 45
4x = 48
x = 12
180 - 45 - 41 = 84
11y + 6 = 94
11y = 88
y = 8
