Answer:

4 horses and 8 ducks.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of ducks be d and the number of horses be h.

d + h = 12

Now ducks have 2 feet and horses have 4 so:

2d + 4h = 32

Multiply the first equation by 2

2d + 2h = 24

Subtract this equation from the second equation:

4h - 2h = 32 - 24

2h = 8

h = 4.

So there were 4 horses and 12 - 4 = 8 ducks.

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

Sin theta = 12/13

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question;

Cot theta = 5/12

Kindly recall;

Cot theta = 1/ tan theta

Hence, tan theta = 12/5

Mathematically

tan theta= opposite/adjacent

to get hypotenuse, we will use Pythagoras’ theorem which states that the square of the hypotenuse equals sum of the squares of the two other sides

let hypotenuse be h

h^2 = 12^2 + 5^2

h^2 = 144 + 25

h^2 = 169

h = √169

h = 13

But sine theta = opposite/ hypotenuse = 12/13

What is the rate of change from 1 to 3
lana [24]

The rate of change is    (amount of the change) / (time it took to change) .

Amount of the change = (3 - 1) = 2 .

Rate of change = (2) / (time it took to change from  1  to  3) .

Determine the intercepts of the line. y = 5 x − 1 3 y=5x−13
sweet-ann [11.9K]
Y-intercept = -13
x-intercept = 2.6 or 2 3/5
-13 is the y-intercept. In the equation, y=mx+b, b is the y-intercept. Looking at the equation, y=5x-13, we can see that -13 is in the place of b, therefore -13 is the y-intercept.
() is the x-intercept. To find the x-intercept, you need to replace values into the equation. Since the coordinates for the x-intercept consist of y being 0, you must replace y in the equation. with 0.
0=5x-13
Get rid of the -13 by adding it onto both sides. -13 is negative and the opposite of a negative is positive, thus making you add to get rid of -13.
0=5x-13
+13 +13
13=5x
Now you divide 5 from both sides to get rid of 5. The opposite of multiplication is division, so you must divide the 5 from 5x to isolate the x.
13/5=5x/5
2.6 or 2 3/5=x
Therefore the coordinates (2.6,0) represent the x-intercept, or just 2.6.

I hope this helped.
