I believe the answer is B-combine like terms
Hi. In order to solve this word problem, you must make two equations and solve them together. To make it easy, we will let the letter "p" represent the pigs and the letter "c" for the chickens. So our first equation will be:
p + c = 13
Now to count the legs - we know that pigs have 4 legs and chickens have 2 so our next equation will be:
2c + 4p = 40
Using the first equation we see that c = 13 - p Now we insert this into the second equation and solve:
2x(13-p) +4 pm = 40
26 - 2p + 4p = 40
2p = 14
p = 7 (there are 7 pigs so now we know there are 6 chickens.
Answer: 7 pigs and 6 chickens
I hope this helps.
Take care,

Answer:
The average rate of change is 1.275
Step-by-step explanation:
The average rate of change of f(x) from x=a to x=b is given by:
The money Terry invested is modeled by the function 
where x represents number of days.
The average rate of change from day 2 to day 10 is given by:
The average rate of change becomes:
The missing value is 6 so 2/5 = 6/15
This is just multiplying and subtracting
So 19% in decimal is 0.19
so 27.37 x 0.19 = 5.2 (If not rounded it is 5.2003)
5.2 - 27.37 = 22.17 (If not rounded 22.167)
