Elanso [62]3 years ago
3 0

Step-by-step explanation:

3/8x-1/3x+6=x

(3(3x)-1(8x))/24=x-6

(9x-8x)=24(x-6)

x=24x-24×6

x=24x-144

144=24x-x

23x=144

x=144/23

What is the value of a, if a^2 – 64 = 0 and a &gt; 0?<br> A) 0 <br> B) 4 <br> C) 8 <br> D) 16
makvit [3.9K]
A^2-64=0 you can factor like this:

(a+8)(a-8)=0 and since a>0, a must be 8

or you can do this:

add 64 to both sides of the equation leaving you with:

a^2=64  taking the square root of both sides

a=(-8,+8) and since a>0, a=8

A farmhouse shelters 16 animals, some are pigs, and some are ducks. Altogether there are 42 legs. How many pigs are there?
zalisa [80]

Answer:

5 pigs

Step-by-step explanation:

A farmhouse shelters 16 animals, some are pigs, and some are ducks. Altogether there are 42 legs. How many pigs are there?

Let us represent:

Number of pigs = x

Number of ducks = y

Our system of equations is given as:

A farmhouse shelters 16 animals, some are pigs, and some are ducks.

x + y = 16...... Equation 1

x = 16 - y

Altogether there are 42 legs.

Ducks have 2 legs(feet) , pigs have 4 legs,

4x + 2y = 42..... Equation 2

We substitute

16 - y for x in Equation 2

Hence:

4(16 - y) + 2y = 42

64 - 4y + 2y = 42

Collect like terms

- 4y + 2y = 42 - 64

-2y =- 22

y = -22/-2

y = 11 ducks

Solving for x.

x = 16 - y

x = 16 - 11

x = 5 pigs

Therefore, we have 5 pigs
