In a different dimension, cows have $x+3$ legs, with 3 toes on each leg. Chickens have $2x-4$ legs, with 7 toes on each leg. If

your farm only has two cows and one chicken, what is the expression for how many animal toes there are in total (not including yours)? Give your answer in simplest form.

Answer:

20x-10

Step-by-step explanation:

Cows have x+3 legs and 3 toes on each leg, if we want to find the number of toes of ONE cow we have to multiply the legs by the toes giving the following:

3(x+3) \quad (1)

But we have two cows so (1) we have to multiply it by 2 giving a total of:

2(3(x+3))\\6(x+3)\\6x+18 \quad (2)

By the other hand chickens have 2x-4 legs and 7 toes on each leg, if we want to find the number of toes we have to multiply the legs by the toes giving the following:

7(2x-4)\\14x-28 \quad (3)

To find the total amount of toes we have to add (2) and (3)

(6x+18)+(14x-28)\\20x-10

Find common variables. I wrote the ones I found above the polynomial. write them in parentheses the first number will have the variable. now it's just a matter of figuring out how to order it so that the first terms added to the second terms equal to the middle term of the polynomial. ... I think this is right. you could always look on wikiHow if I'm wrong.

Write an equation with a slope of -1/2 in each form.<br> point-slope form<br> slope-intercept form.
Evgen [1.6K]

For the case of a line through

(

2

,

7

)

and

(

1

,

−

4

)

we have

slope

m

=

Δ

y

Δ

x

=

−

4

−

7

1

−

2

=

−

11

−

1

=

11

Using the point

(

2

,

7

)

we can write the equation of the line in point slope form as:

y

−

7

=

m

(

x

−

2

)

where the slope

m

=

11

.

That is:

y

−

7

=

11

(

x

−

2

)

To get point intercept form, first expand the right hand side so...

y

−

7

=

11

x

−

(

11

⋅

2

)

=

11

x

−

22

Then add

7

to both sides to get:

y

=

11

x

−

15

=

11

x

+

(

−

15

)

This is point intercept (

y

=

m

x

+

c

) form with slope

m

=

11

and intercept

c

=

−

15

.

Hey pls help worth 30 points
GrogVix [38]

Step 1: Find the slope:

    m = \dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} = \dfrac{10-6}{6-5} = \dfrac{4}{1} = 4

Step 2: Set up your equation y-y_1=m(x-x_1) using one of the points.

    Using (5,6) we have y-6 = 4(x-5).

    Using (6,10) we have y-10 = 4(x-6)

Both of those equations would be correct.
