Hey there!!
A chicken has 1 head and 2 feet . A goat has 1 head and 4 feet
For heads, total = 40
Let us take the number of chickens as ' x ' and goats as ' y '
x + y = 40 ------------- ( 1 )
2x + 4y = 150 ----------- ( 2 )
Multiply the first equation with 2
2x + 2y = 80
2x + 4y = 150
Subtract the first equation from the first
2y = 70
y = 35
Number of goats = 35
substitute this in other equation
x + y = 40
x + 35 = 40
x = 5
Number of chickens are 4
Hope it helps!
Answer:
See explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
The average rainfall when you add all 10 years of rainfall up and divide by 10 is an average of 59.946 inches of rain each year. The equation for the data is y = -0.53x + 64.45, this means that the rainfall is getting less each year at a -0.53 inches of rain each year.
x = year (2004 would be 4, etc)
Answer:
I think the answer is x is 16 and y is 20? I could be wrong tho
Step-by-step explanation:
First, subtract -7 from -1 to get 8.
Then, add the 12 and you get 16 for x.
First, subtract 7y from 9x to get 2y
Then, add 4 to get 20 for y.
-3x + 2y = -3
4x - y = -1
2(4x - y = -1)
-3x +2y = -3
8x -2y = -2
-5x = -5
/-5
X = 1
