Neko [114]

Answer:there are 16 goats and 22 chickens.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of goats in the field.

Let y represent the number if chicken in the field.

After a quick count, you determine there are 38 heads and 108 feet in the field. A goat has one head. A chicken also has one head. It means that

x + y = 38

A goat has four legs. A chicken has 2 legs. It means that

4x + 2y = 108 - - - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 38 - y into equation 1, it becomes

4(38 - y) + 2y = 108

152 - 4y + 2y = 108

- 4y + 2y = 108 - 152

- 2y = - 44

y = - 44/ - 2

y = 22

x = 38 - y = 38 - 22

x = 16

Given the function f(x) = 4(x + 1)^2 – 3, indicate the shifts that will affect the location of the vertex, and explain what effe
solniwko [45]
He first two are relatively easy. f(x-2) shifts it sideways (2 to the right in this case) f(x) -2 shifts it straight down (by 2)
f(2x) means replace x with 2x in the original 4(2x + 1)^2 − 3 if you factor out the 2 from the square root you get 4*sqr(2) ( x + ½)^2 - 3 which is now in the form a ( x -h)^2 + k the vertex is now at (-½, -3) (it used to be at (-1,-3) the "a" has gotten bigger, which makes the parabola "skinnier" (it goes up faster)
2•f(x) becomes 2*( 4(x + 1)2 − 3 ) = 8 (x+1)^2 -6 where is the vertex now? is this parabola fatter or skinnier than the original f(x) ?

Jim has only dimes and nickels in his coin bank. He has 37 coins with a total value of $2.65.
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

21

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of dimes and y represent the number of nickels.  The total number of coins is 37; this gives us the equation

x+y = 37

Each dime is worth ten cents, or 0.10, and each nickel is worth five cents, or 0.05.  The total amount of money is given by

0.10x+0.05y = 2.65

This gives us the system

\left \{ {{x+y=37} \atop {0.10x+0.05y=2.65}} \right.

To solve this, we will use substitution.  We will isolate x in the first equation:

x+y=37

Subtract y from each side:

x+y-y = 37-y

x = 37-y

Substitute this into the second equation:

0.10(37-y)+0.05y = 2.65

Using the distributive property,

0.10(37)-0.10(y)+0.05y = 2.65

3.70-0.10y+0.05y = 2.65

Combining like terms,

3.70-0.05y = 2.65

Subtract 3.70 from each side,

3.70-0.05y-3.70 = 2.65-3.70

-0.05y = -1.05

Divide both sides by -0.05:

-0.05y/-0.05 = -1.05/-0.05

y = 21

There were 21 nickels.
