Answer:

5 & 8

Step-by-step explanation:

x-y = 3 -> x = 3+y

x+y = 13 = 3+y+y -> 3+2*y = 13

2*y = 10 -> y = 5

-> x = 3+y = 8

There are only chickens and pigs in Henry's Barn Henry counted a total of Sixteen animal heads and a total of 50 animal feet.How

raketka [301]

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.

I hope it helps you!
