Answer:
9 pigs
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the following numbers of heads:
pigs (p) + chickens (c) = 16 animal heads (1)
And the following numbers of feet:
4p + 2c = 50 animal feet (2)
From equation (1):
p = 16 - c (3)
By entering equation (3) into (2) we have:
4(16 - c) + 2c = 50
64 - 4c + 2c = 50
c = 7
Now, entering the value of c into equation (3) we have the next value of p:
p = 16 - c
p = 16 - 7
p = 9
Therefore, the number of pigs that Henry has is 9.

The problem is asking how much each person will need to pay. Simplifying the problem into an equation with variables (an algorithm) will greatly help you solve it:
S = Sales Tax = $ 7.18 per any purchase
A = Admission Ticket = $ 22.50 entry price for one person (no tax applied)
F = Food = $ 35.50 purchases for two people
We know the cost for one person was: (22.50) + [(35.50/2) + 7.18] =
$ 47.43 per person. Now we can check each method and see which one is the correct algorithm:
Method A)
[2A + (F + 2S)] / 2 = [ (2)(22.50) + [35.50 + (2)(7.18)] ]/ 2 = $47.43
Method A is the correct answer
Method B)
[(2A + (1/2)F + 2S) /2 = [(2)(22.50) + 35.50(1/2) + (2)7.18] / 2 = $38.55
Wrong answer. This method is incorrect because the tax for both tickets bought are not being used in the equation.
Method C)
[(A + F) / 2 ]+ S = [(22.50 + 35.50) / 2 ] + 7.18 = $35.93
Wrong answer. Incorrect Method. The food cost is being reduced to the cost of one person but admission price is set for two people.
The first thing you do is to find the lowest common multiple of 5 and 7.What you do on the bottom, you must do on the top 25/35 / 28/35. The answer is 25/28. Sara ran 25/28 of the total distance around the track.
