Answer: The number is 40
Step-by-step explanation:
We will set up an equation where 4/5 is being multiply by the number to get 32. we will represent that number by x
4/5 * x = 32 solve for x
4/5x = 32
0.8x = 32
x = 40
If each case weighs 24 pounds, then 1p=24 pounds. so if we're trying to find a function of weight, p=24c.
Example: When you have 2 cases, you plug in a 2 for c
p=24c
p=24(2)
p=48
So if you have two cases, it will total 48 pounds,
So that is why the equation is p=24c. Hope this helps!
Let the number of geese be x.
Then number of goats is 22-x.
A goose has 2 legs, and a goat has 4.
There are a total of 82 legs.
So,
2x + 4(22-x) = 82
2x + 88 - 4x = 82
-2x = -6
x = 3
There are 3 geese and (22-3=) 19 goats.
