Answer:
5 cows and 3 ducks
okay well there are 8 heads and each animal has a head meaning that there are a total of 8 organisms in total. Cows have 4 legs and ducks have 2. Lets say that c is cows and d is ducks. You would have the equations ...
c+d=8
4c+2d=26
well d techniacally = 8-c, so plug in (8-c) for the value of d
4c+2(8-c)=26. Distribute to get
4c+16-2c
and then add like terms. Soy ou would get
2c+16=26.
then just isolate the variable but subtracting 16 from both sides and dividing 2 on both sides. The answer you would get is that c=5 so there are 5 cows. Plug in 5 for c so you get 5+d=8 and tadaaaa you subtract 5 from both sides to get that there are 3 ducks.
hope this helps :)
868 is about 870, and 28 is about 30, so your expression would be 870 divided by 30 which would be 29 and the actual answer is 31, so your estimate would be close to your actual answer.
