Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we need to list some equations. Letting variable d stand for dogs and p stand for parrots, we have:

d+p=40 (The number of dogs plus the number of parrots equals 40)

4d+2p=130 (Each dog has 4 legs and each parrot has 2 legs and they have 130 legs in total)

With this system of equations, we can quickly solve it for d and p.

Subtract:

 4d+2p=130

- d+p=40

_________

3d+p=90,

p=90-3d

Substitution:

d+(90-3d)=40

90-2d=40

-2d=-50

d=25

Substitution to get p:

p+25=40

p=15

There you have it! There are 25 dogs and 15 parrots. To check our work,

25+15=40

4(25)+2(15)=100+30=130

I hope this helped! :)

Answer: There are 32 dogs and 1 Parrot

Step-by-step explanation: I had a question like this in a math class. What you first do is to recognize that- parrots have 2 legs and dogs have 4. We can do 130/2 = 65 and 130/4= 32.5. Now we know that if there was only one animal, there would be 65 parrots, and 32 dogs- one with half of the legs. Since there is a .5 for the dogs, if we put in one parrot, it would mean that there is exactly 130.

(32 x 4)+(2x1) = 130.  There are 32 dogs and 1 Parrot. I hope this answer is ✅ and helps, i just joined the community and this is the first person I answered. Good Luck!!

3 3/5 + 9 3/5 answer with a mixed number in simplest form
Romashka [77]

Both fractions have the same denominator so it's going to be easy. First set up your equation:

3 \frac{3}{5} + 9 \frac{3}{5}

Add the whole numbers:

3 + 9 = 12

Now add the fractions:

\frac{3}{5} + \frac{3}{5} = \frac{6}{5}

add both together:

12 + \frac{6}{5} = 12 \frac{6}{5}

\frac{6}{5} is an improper fraction so change it:

12 \frac{6}{5} = 13 \frac{1}{5}

Since 6 is one more than 5, add 1 to the whole number and subtract the numerator and denominator(6 - 5 = 1) and make the remaining the new numerator. That leaves you with 13 \frac{1}{5}

Your answer is 13 \frac{1}{5}

What is the equation of the graph shown?​
OlgaM077 [116]

<em>Greetings from Brasil...</em>

As we have a line, the function will be given by the expression:

F(X) = AX + B

where

<em>A = ΔY/ΔX</em>

<em>B = where the line intersects the Y axis</em>

Looking at the graph we have already concluded that

B = - 3

A = ΔY/ΔX

A = (5 - 3)/(4 - 3)     see attached picture

A = 2

So,

F(X) = AX + B

<h2>F(X) = 2X - 3</h2>

0.2(10-5c)=5c-16 halp
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

c= 3

Step-by-step explanation:

0.2(10 -5c)= 5c -16

<em>Expand</em><em>:</em>

0.2(10) +0.2(-5c)= 5c -16

2 -c= 5c -16

<em>Bring</em><em> </em><em>all</em><em> </em><em>c</em><em> </em><em>terms</em><em> </em><em>to</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em> </em><em>side</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>constant</em><em> </em><em>to</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>other</em><em>:</em>

5c +c= 2 +16

<em>Simplify</em><em>:</em>

6c= 18

<em>Divide</em><em> </em><em>by</em><em> </em><em>6</em><em> </em><em>on</em><em> </em><em>both</em><em> </em><em>sides</em><em>:</em>

c= 18 ÷6

c= 3

Which ordered pairs in the form (x, y)(x, y) are solutions to the equation
Scilla [17]
4x - 5y = 24

4(6) - 5(0) = 24
24 - 0 = 24
24 = 24 (correct)....so (6,0) is a solution

4(1) - 5(-4) = 24
4 + 20 = 24
24 = 24 (correct)...and (1,-4) is a solution
