2 16/100 this would be that as a fraction. I'm a little confused as to what your asking
Answer:
x=17/3, y=59. (17/3, 59).
Step-by-step explanation:
y=6x+25
y=12x-9
--------------
6x+25=12x-9
12x-6x-9=25
6x-9=25
6x=25+9
6x=34
x=34/6=17/3
y=12(17/3)-9=4*17-9=68-9=59
First, we have two points and we need to use these points to find the slope. To do this, let's label one point x1 and y1, the other point x2 and y2 then,
Slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
(2, 3) - 2 is x1 and 3 is y1
(-1, -12) -1 is x2 and -12 is y2
Slope = (-12 - 3) / ( -1 - 2) = -15 / -3 = 5
Now the equation of our line is: y = 5x + b
Let's plug one of our points into this equation to solve for b.
3 = 5(2) + b
3 = 10 + b
Subtract 10 from both sides.
-7 = b
The equation of our line is: y = 5x - 7
Answer:
22 hens and 78 sheep
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of hens = x
Number of sheep = y
Total heads = 100
x + y = 100 --------------------(I)
x = 100 - y
Number of legs of 'x' hen = 2*x = 2x
Number of legs of 'y' sheep = 4*y = 4y
total legs = 356
2x + 4y = 356 -----------------------(II)
Substitute x = 100 -y in equation (II)
2(100 - y) + 4y = 356
2*100 - 2*y + 4y = 356
200 <u>- 2y + 4y</u> = 356 {Combine like terms}
200 + 2y = 356 {Subtract 200 from both sides}
2y = 356 - 200
2y = 156 {Divide both sides by 2}
y = 156/2
y = 78
Plugin y = 78 in equation (I)
x + 78 = 100
x = 100 - 78
x = 22
22 hens and 78 sheep
