I will solve this equation simultaneously by Substitution.

- x + y = 2
5x + 4y = 17

Solve - x + y = 2 for y:
- x + y + x = 2 + x (here we add x to both sides)
y = x + 2

Substitute x + 2 for y in 5x + 4y = 17
5x + 4y = 17
5x + 4(x + 2) = 17
5x + 4x + 8 = 17
9x + 8 = 17 (simplify both sides of the equation)
9x + 8 + (-8) = 17 + (-8) (add -8 to both sides)
9x = 9
9x/9 = 9/9 (divide both sides by 9)

x = 1

Substitute 1 for x in y = x + 2
y = x + 2
y = 1 + 2
y = 3 ( simplify both sides of the equation)

Therefore x = 1 and y = 3

Use a Venn diagram to answer the question. A survey of 180 families showed that 67 had a​ dog; 52 had a​ cat; 22 had a dog and a
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

There are 13 families had a parakeet only

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain the problem

- There are 180 families

- 67 families had a dog

- 52 families had a cat

- 22 families had a dog and a cat

- 70 had neither a cat nor a​ dog, and in addition did not have a​

 parakeet

- 4 had a​ cat, a​ dog, and a parakeet (4 is a part of 22 and 22 is a part

 of 67 and 520

* We will explain the Venn-diagram

- A rectangle represent the total of the families

- Three intersected circles:

 C represented the cat

 D represented the dog

 P represented the parakeet

- The common part of the three circle had 4 families

- The common part between the circle of the cat and the circle of the

 dog only had 22 - 4 = 18 families

- The common part between the circle of the dog and the circle of the

 parakeet only had a families

- The common part between the circle of the cat and the circle of the

 parakeet only had b families

- The non-intersected part of the circle of the dog had 67 - 22 - a =

  45 - a families

  had dogs only

- The non-intersected part of the circle of the cat had 52 - 22 - b =  

  30 - b families

  had cats only

- The non-intersected part of the circle of the parakeet had c families

  had parakeets only

- The part out side the circles and inside the triangle has 70 families

- Look to the attached graph for more under stand

∵ The total of the families is 180

∴ The sum of all steps above is 180

∴ 45 - a + 18 + 4 + 30 - b + b + c + a + 70 = 180 ⇒ simplify

- (-a) will cancel (a) and (-b) will cancel (b)

∴ (45 + 18 + 4 + 30 + 70) + (-a + a) + (-b + b) + c = 180

∴ 167 + c = 180 ⇒ subtract 167 from both sides

∴ c = 180 - 167 = 13 families

* There are 13 families had a parakeet only

If the diameter of his flower bed is 100 inches what is distance around the garden
Gala2k [10]
Well if pi is referred to as 3.14 then the distance around the garden would be 314.  
The formula for Circumfrence is pi times diameter, so 3.14 times 100 = 314 (circumfrence)
