Answer:
6 elephants and 3 kangaroos in the zoo.
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of animals = 9
Number of legs seen = 30
But an elephant has 4 legs, while a kangaroo has 2 legs.
Let the number of elephant be represented by E, and the number of kangaroo by K.
So that,
E + K = 9 .................. 1
4E + 2K = 30 ............. 2
Multiply equation 1 by 2 to have
2E + 2K = 18 ............ 3
Subtract equation 3 from 1
2E = 12
E = 6
Substitute the value of E in equation 1
E + K = 9
6 + K = 9
k = 3
Thus, there were 6 elephants and 3 kangaroos in the zoo.
Answer:
x=30
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+x+90=180 (anglesome prop.)
3x+90=180
3x=180-90=90
3x=90
x=90/3=30
Okay so I'm guessing that they are two different formulas the f(x)= 3x and the f(x)= -5x-2. If that's is true then you would just have to plug in -2 to the x's. So then it would be f(x)= 3(-2) which if you solve it would give you f(x)= -6 and for the second one it would be f(x)= -5(-2)-2 so then you would solve for it and get f(x)= 8.
You'll have to divide 2.2 and 11 getting you 5, 11/2.2=5, just use your TI-84 plus calculator
