Sheep (s) = pigs (p) +150
s=p+150
s=6p
6p=p+150
5p=150
p=30

there are 30 pigs
30/2=15
15*3=45

there are 45 cows

here's is a little bit so you know this is correct
30x6=180
180-30=150
there is a 150 difference between sheep and pigs.

Hope this helps :)

They figured 150 more sheep than pigs from 2 pigs X 75 sheep=150 lambs of 12 groups of sheep.
150 lambs/3 groups of cows=50 cows.

1. A football team gains 2 yards on the first play,

Ilya [14]

Option C

The football team had a overall loss of 2 yards

Solution:

When the team gains yards we use a positive value, and when the team loses yards we use a negative value.

Given that, football team gains 2 yards on the first play

First play = +2

Given that football team loses 5 yards on the second play

Second play = -5

Given that football team loses 3 yards on the third play

Third play = -3

Given that football team gains 4 yards on the fourth play

Fourth play = +4

Put the yards from four plays together, we get

⇒ 2 -5 -3 + 4

Let us simplify

⇒ -3 -3 + 4 = -6 + 4 = -2

So, -2 represents loss of two yards (since negative value indicates loss)
