Answer:
7 donkeys
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
A system consisting of donkeys and tourists
Heads = 50
Legs = 114
Required
Calculate number of donkeys.
Represent donkeys with D and tourists with T.
By means of identification; donkeys and tourists (human) both have 1 head.
This implies that
Number of Heads = D + T
50 = D + T ----- Equation 1
While each donkey have 4 legs, each tourists have 2 legs.
This implies that
Number of legs = 4D + 2T
114 = 4D + 2T ---- Multiply both sides by ½
114 * ½ = (4D + 2T) * ½
57 = 4D * ½ + 2T * ½
57 = 2D + T ----- Equation 2
Subtract equation 1 from 2
57 = 2D + T
- (50 = D + T)
---------------------
57 - 50 = 2D - D + T - T
7 = D
Recall that D represents the number of donkeys.
So, D = 7 implies that
The total number of donkeys are 7
The answer is D. Think of the Pythagorean Theorem which states that a^2 + b^2 = c^2. The Pythagorean Identities used in trigonometry are the angle version which can be used to simplify expressions.
Answer:
36 tiles
Step-by-step explanation:
Because the room is square, the numbers of tiles along the edge of the room were multiplied by the same number, meaning that:
81 = x²
So to find x, we must square root both sides of the equation:
x = 9
So the length of one side is 9 tiles. Now to calculate the circumference, as each side of a square is the same length, we can multiply this number by 4:
9 * 4 = 36
So there are 36 tiles along the edge of the room.
Hope this helps!
