A farmer has chickens and cows. You ask the farmer how many chickens he has, and how many cows he has. The farmer has 28 healthy
crimeas [40]
Set the number of chickens as x and number of cows as <span>y
</span>so the farmer has total 28 animals
so x+y=28 
you know that since the animals are healthy
chickens will have 2 legs    and
cows will have 4 legs
the total number of legs are 64
so 2x+4y=64
since you want to find the number of cows 
so from the first equation <span>x+y=28
</span>we will get another equation <span>x=28-y
</span>then plug into <span>2x+4y=64
2(28-y)+4y=64
56-2y+4y=64
56+2y=64
-56      -56
2y=8
y=4
</span>

find the length of the side of square with an area of 121 in2. A.484 in, B.30.25 in, C.11 in, D.6.5 in
marishachu [46]
For a square, the area is the square of the side length (length x width = area, but in a square length = width). That means the side length is the square root of the area.

In this case the side length is the square root of 121, which is 11. Answer is C.

Write an equation of the line passing through the point A(2, 0) that is parallel to the line y = 3x−5 .
sammy [17]
Hello,

In order for lines to be parallel to each other, they need to have the same slope. So, let's plug in the points and slope for point-slope form.

The equation for point-slope form is: y-y1 = m (x-x1)

Let's plug in the points into the equation. 
y-5 = m (x-0), and then let's plug in the slope for "m" : y-5 = 3 (x-0).

After plugging the numbers in, the equation is simplified to y-5 = 3 (x-0). Then distribute the 3 to the parenthesis. y-5 = 3x. To get y by itself, you need to add 5 to both sides. After that, the equation parallel to that equation is: y = 3x + 5.

Hope this helps! =)

A family swimming pool holds 61 m3 of water. It loses 0.27m3 of water to evaporation each day. This situation can be represented
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: when x = 100 days, y = 34 m³

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Volumen = 61 m³

Loses 0.27 m³ each day

Equation    y + 0.27x = 61

when x = 100, y = ?

Process, just substitute x in the equation and solve it for y

                  y + 0.27(100) = 61

                  y + 27 = 61

                  y = 61 - 27

                  y = 34 m³

It means that after ten days, the swimming pool will only have 34 m³, because 27 m³ will have evaporated.
