Answer:

12 cows - 48 legs

4 ducks- 8 legs

- there are many different numbers you can do but if you want to change the numbers and have more ducks then: for every one cow you take away two more ducks.

Step-by-step explanation:

22 total animals

56 total legs

ducks have 2 legs

cows have 4 legs

12 times 4 = 48 ( 12 cows with 4 legs each cow =  48 legs)

4 times 2 = 8 ( 4 ducks with 2 legs each duck = 8 legs)

A ticket to a movie theatre for a student is $7. The cost for an adult is $2 more than for a student. How much would it cost 13
MakcuM [25]

Answer: it would cost a total of $194

Step-by-step explanation:

A ticket to a movie theatre for a student is $7. The cost for an adult is $2 more than for a student.

If student ticket costs $x, adult ticket would cost x + 2

This means that the cost for an adult is

7 + 2 = $9

The cost of 13 adult tickets to the movie theatre would be

13 × 9 = $117.

The cost of 11 student tickets to the movie theatre would be

11 × 7 = $77

Total cost of 13 adult tickets and 11 student tickets would be

117 + 77 = $194
