The mass of full grown giraffe is 372.42 kg and mass of full grown lion is 62.07 kg and mass of full grown cheetah is 15.51 kg

Solution:

Let "a" be the mass of full grown giraffe

Let "b" be the mass of full grown lion

Let "c" be the mass of full grown cheetah

A full-grown giraffe is about 6 times heavier than a full-grown lion

a = 6b ------- eqn 1

A full-grown cheetah is about one-quarter as heavy as a full-grown lion

\begin{gathered}c = \frac{1}{4} \times b\\\\c = \frac{b}{4} ----- eqn\ 2\end{gathered}

c=

4

×b

c=

4

b

−−−−−eqn 2

Together, they are about 450 kg

Therefore,

a + b + c = 450

Substitute eqn 1 and eqn 2 in above

\begin{gathered}6b + b + \frac{b}{4} = 450\\\\24b + 4b + b = 450 \times 4\\\\29b = 1800\\\\b = 62.07\end{gathered}

6b+b+

4

b

=450

24b+4b+b=450×4

29b=1800

b=62.07

Substitute b = 62.07 in eqn 1

\begin{gathered}a = 6(62.07)\\\\a = 372.42\end{gathered}

a=6(62.07)

a=372.42

Substitute b = 62.07 in eqn 2

c = \frac{62.07}{4} = 15.51c=

4

62.07

=15.51

Thus, mass of full grown giraffe is 372.42 kg and mass of full grown lion is 62.07 kg and mass of full grown cheetah is 15.51 kg

How do i do diss plss​

Answer

Assuming you want an explanation and now numbers VVV

Step-by-step explanation:

The first column says those are the measurements for four people, since two is half of four you can divide all those measurements in half to fill out the "2 people" collum. To fill out the rest of the columns justs take the amount you just multiply. For example you'd need 1 tbsp of butter for two people, to find how much you need for six you multiply that by 3.

If you have any questions please ask, i hope this helps!

Solve the simultaneous equations<br> x-6y=5<br> xy - 2y2 = 6<br> -<br> Show clear algebraic working.
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

(- 7, - 2 ) , (9.5, 0.75 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equations

x - 6y = 5 ( add 6y to both sides )

x = 5 + 6y → (1)

xy - 2y² = 6 → (2)

Substitute x = 5 + 6y into (2)

(5 + 6y)y - 2y² = 6 ← distribute and rearrange left side

5y + 6y² - 2y² = 6

4y² + 5y = 6 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

4y² + 5y - 6 = 0 ← in standard form

(y + 2)(4y - 3) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for y

y + 2 = 0 ⇒ y = - 2

4y - 3 = 0 ⇒ 4y = 3 ⇒ y = \frac{3}{4} = 0.75

Substitute these values into (1) for corresponding values of x

y = - 2 : x = 5 + 6(- 2) = 5 - 12 = - 7 ⇒ (- 7, - 2 )

y = 0.75 : x = 5 + 6(0.75) = 5 + 4.5 = 9.5 ⇒ (9.5, 0.75 )
