Mathematics
1 answer:

Answer:

let the number of cows = x

let the number of chickens = y

since there are 42 heads:

x + y = 42

and since a cow has 4 legs, and a chicken has 2

4x + 2y = 144

from first equation:

x + y  = 42

x = 42 - y (now, we will substitute this in the second equation)

4(42 - y) + 2y = 144

168 - 4y + 2y  = 144

2y = 168 - 144

2y = 24

y = 12

now, we know the number of chickens. we will replace y with 12 in the first equation since it is more simpler

x + 12 = 42

x = 30

So, there are 30 cows and 12 chickens

Write in slope-intercept form an equation of the line that passes through the given points. (2,4),(5,13)
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

y = 3x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the slope using the equation for slope

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

    = (13-4)/(5-2)

    = 9/3

     = 3

We know the slope and a point, so we can use point slope form to make an equation

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-4 = 3(x-2)

Distribute

y-4 = 3x-6

Add 4 to each side

y-4+4 = 3x-6+4

y = 3x-2

This is in slope intercept form (y= mx+b)

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is B because if you move two times to the right it gives you 0.09 like the eqution.

But scientific notation requires number without decimal, so the answer cannot be E because 0.9 is a decimal.

Just reminder: B and D have the same result!! just different coefficient
