Answer:

15 pigs 22 chickens

Step-by-step explanation:

So if there are 15 heads, that means there 15 pigs and we know chickens have 2 legs, so we do do 44/2 = 22, so there are 15 pigs and 22 chickens

Consider the equation
Ira Lisetskai [31]

The solution to the original equation is 1, 1/6

<h3>Solving equation</h3>

Equations are expressions separated by mathematical operations.

Given the equation below

x/x − 1 = 6x + 1/x − 1

From the given expression, the least common denominator is x -1

Multiply both sides by x-1 to have;

x = 6x(x-1) +1

Expand

x = 6x^2-6x + 1

Equate to zero

6x^2-6x-x + 1 = 0

6x^2-7x +1= 0

The resulting quadratic equation in general form is 6x^2-7x +1 = 0

Factorize

6x^2 -6x-x + 1 = 0

Group the result

6x(x-1)-1(x-1) = 0

(6x-1)(x-1) = 0

6x - 1 = 0 and x -1 = 0

x = 1 and 1/6

Hence the solution to the original equation is 1, 1/6
