So first create and define your variables:
Z = amount of zebra fish
N = amount of neon tetras
Now create your equations:
2z+2.15n=31.20
z+n=15
This is your system. There are multiple methods to use but in this problem I’ll use the substitution method by simplifying the bottom equation.
2z+2.15n=31.20
z=15-n
Now I’ll plug the bottom equation into the top one.
2(15-n)+2.15n=31.20
And just solve from here.
30-2n+2.15n=31.20
0.15n=1.20
n=8
So he bout 8 neon tetras, and 15-8= 7, so he bought 7 zebra fish
Hey there,
All we have to do is 472-21=451
So your number would be 451
Answer:
7 horses and 8 chickens
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this, first you would need to list out all of the available ratios. Then, find out how many legs are in each option.:
14 horses and 1 chicken = 58 legs
13 horses and 2 chickens = 56 legs
12 horses and 3 chickens = etc.
11 horses and 4 chickens
10 horses and 5 chickens
9 horses and 6 chickens
8 horses and 7 chickens
7 horses and 8 chickens = 44 legs!
6 horses and 9 chickens
5 horses and 10 chickens
4 horses and 11 chickens
3 horses and 12 chickens
2 horses and 13 chickens
1 horses and 14 chickens
Answer:
r = t - u - s
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve for r in terms of s, t, and u, means to have r on one side and have t, u, and s.
t = u - s + r
t - u = s + r
t - u - s = r
