Answer:
60 chickens
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume the 140 refers to the number animals (heads, noses, bodies, whatever). If all of those were chickens, there would be 280 legs. There are 160 legs more than that.
Since each pig that replaces a chicken adds 2 legs, there must be 160/2 = 80 pigs. That leaves 140 -80 = 60 chickens.
Parallel slope = 2
This is because the original line has slope 2. Parallel lines have equal slopes.
--------------------------
Perpendicular slope = -1/2
The original slope 2 or 2/1 turns into -1/2 after flipping the fraction and the sign. Note the original slope and perpendicular slope multiply to -1. This is true for any pair of perpendicular lines where neither line is vertical.
Variance is the standard deviation squared but we're not going to use that now. Let's first calculate the mean:
mean = (17+13+13+22+11+20)/6 = 16.
Now for each value, let's see how far it is from this mean. We'll square these distances and average them. That's our variance.
17 distance 1 squared = 1
13 distance 3 squared = 9
13 distance 3 squared = 9
22 distance 6 squared = 36
11 distance 5 squared = 25
20 distance 4 squared = 16
Now average these outcomes:
variance = (1+9+9+36+25+16)/6 = 16.
So the variance by coincidence is the same as the mean.
