Answer:

multiply the first equation by 2

Step-by-step explanation:

24x + 36y = 72

-16x + 8y = 80

48x + 72y = 144

-48x + 24y = 240

96y = 384

y = 4

24x + 36(4) = 72

24x + 144 = 72

24x = -72

x = -3

In a pen of goats and chickens, there are 40 heads and 150 feet. How many goats and chickens are in the pen?
s2008m [1.1K]

Hey there!!

A chicken has 1 head and 2 feet . A goat has 1 head and 4 feet

For heads, total = 40

Let us take the number of chickens as ' x ' and goats as ' y '

x + y = 40 ------------- ( 1 )

2x + 4y = 150 ----------- ( 2 )

Multiply the first equation with 2

2x + 2y = 80

2x + 4y = 150

Subtract the first equation from the first

2y = 70

y = 35

Number of goats = 35

substitute this in other equation

x + y = 40

x + 35 = 40

x = 5

Number of chickens are 4

Hope it helps!

PLEASE HELP ASAAP 25 PTS + BRAINLIEST TO RIGHT/BEST ANSWER
Nutka1998 [239]

Let i = sqrt(-1) which is the conventional notation to set up an imaginary number

The idea is to break up the radicand, aka stuff under the square root, to simplify

sqrt(-8) = sqrt(-1*4*2)

sqrt(-8) = sqrt(-1)*sqrt(4)*sqrt(2)

sqrt(-8) = i*2*sqrt(2)

sqrt(-8) = 2i*sqrt(2)

<h3>Answer is choice A</h3>
