Answer:
There are 25 chickens and 20 rabbits
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x-----> the number of chickens
y ----> the number of rabbits
Remember that
1 chicken has two legs
1 rabbit has four legs
so
2x+4y=130 -------> equation A
x=y+5 -----> equation B
Substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y
2(y+5)+4y=130
2y+10+4y=130
6y=120
y=20 rabbits
Find the value of x
x=y+5
x=20+5=25 chickens
Answer:
7 , 8 , 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume three consecutive number are,
x , (x+1) , (x+2)
Multiplied by 2 ,3 and 4 respectively
2x , 3(x + 1) , 4(x + 2)
Sum of all = 74
So,
2x + 3(x + 1) + 4(x + 2) = 74
2x + 3x + 3 + 4x + 8 = 74
9x + 11 = 74
9x = 63
x = 7
So,
x , (x+1) , (x+2)
7 , (7+1) , (7+2)
7 , 8 , 9
The slope of 6x + 2y = 4 is
y = -3x + 2
