x=# of pigs

y=# of chickens

x+y=220

Pigs have 4 legs and chickens have 2 legs.

4x+2y=520

x+y=220

Multiply each term of x+y=220 by -2.

-2x-2y=-440

4x+2y=520

add the two equations

2x=80

x=40 pigs

220-40=180 chickens

Another solution...

x+y=220

4x+2y=520

x=220-y

4(220-y)+2y=520

880-4y+2y=520

880-2y=520

-2y=-880+520

-2y=-360

y=180 chickens

220-180=40 pigs

Calculate the mass of sodium azide (2NaN3) required to decompose and produce 1.20 moles of nitrogen.
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:  40.8 g of NaN₃

Step-by-step explanation:

NaN₃ mass = ?

nitrogen = 1.2 moles

Equation

                           2NaN₃      ⇒ 2Na  +  3N2

                          2 moles of NaN₃  -----------------   3 moles of N₂

                           x                          ------------------   1.2 moles of N₂

                          x = (1.2 x 2) / 3

                          x = 2.4/ 3

                         x = 0.8 moles of NaN₃

MW NaN₃ = 23 + 28

                = 51 g

                         51 g of NaN₃ ----------------- 1 mol

                         x                    ----------------- 0.8 mol

                         x = (0.8 x 51) / 1

                        x = 40.8 g of NaN₃

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

xy = k    

where k is the constant of variation.

We can also express the relationship between x and y as:

y =      

where k is the constant of variation.

Since k is constant, we can find k given any point by multiplying the x-coordinate by the y-coordinate. For example, if y varies inversely as x, and x = 5 when y = 2, then the constant of variation is k = xy = 5(2) = 10. Thus, the equation describing this inverse variation is xy = 10 or y = .

Example 1: If y varies inversely as x, and y = 6 when x = , write an equation describing this inverse variation.

k = (6) = 8  

xy = 8 or y =  

Example 2: If y varies inversely as x, and the constant of variation is k = , what is y when x = 10?

xy =  

10y =  

y = × = × =  

k is constant. Thus, given any two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) which satisfy the inverse variation, x1y1 = k and x2y2 = k. Consequently, x1y1 = x2y2 for any two points that satisfy the inverse variation.

Example 3: If y varies inversely as x, and y = 10 when x = 6, then what is y when x = 15?

x1y1 = x2y2  

6(10) = 15y  

60 = 15y  

y = 4  

Thus, when x = 6, y = 4.



2nd answer choice


constant of variation is xy. XY=23. If X=7 then Y=23/7.

Questions (no partial grades if you don't show your work) 1. In a group of 6 boys and 4 girls, four children are to be selected.
mariarad [96]

Answer:

Total number of ways will be 209

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 6 boys and 4 girls in a group and 4 children are to be selected.

We have to find the number of ways that 4 children can be selected if at least one boy must be in the group of 4.

So the groups can be arranged as

(1 Boy + 3 girls), (2 Boy + 2 girls), (3 Boys + 1 girl), (4 boys)

Now we will find the combinations in which these arrangements can be done.

1 Boy and 3 girls = ^{6}C_{1}\times^{4}C_{3}=6\times4=24

2 Boy and 2 girls=^{6}C_{2}\times^{4}C_{2}=\frac{6!}{4!\times2!}\times\frac{4!}{2!\times2!}=15\times6=90

3 Boys and 1 girl = ^{6}C_{3}\times^{4}C_{1}=\frac{6!}{4!\times2!}\times\frac{4!}{3!}=\frac{6\times5\times4}{3 \times2} \times4=80

4 Boys = ^{6}C_{4}=\frac{6!}{4!\times2!} =\frac{6\times 5}{2\times1}=15

Now total number of ways = 24 + 90 + 80 + 15 = 209
