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.

Answer:
<h2>A. 4 in</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Collinear points are points that lies on the same straight line. If the points E, F and G are collinear points, then the three points lies on the same straight line.
If E is between F and G, the FE+EG = FG
EG = FG - FE
Given FE = 3 in and FG = 7 in
On substituting into the expression above to get EG;
EG = 7in - 3in
EG = 4in
Hence the length of EG is 4in
Answer:
A. 5x^2 - 2x - 12 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
The base is x feet.
The height is 2 less that 5 times the base.
The height is 5x - 2.
The area is 12.
The area is base * height / 2.
area = bh/2
area = x * (5x - 2) = 12
5x^2 - 2x = 12
5x^2 - 2x - 12 = 0
