Step-by-step explanation:

Claim: There's 14 Goats and 9 Chickens!!

Data:

Working with the Provided Information.

Let the Number of goats be x

let the Number of Chickens be y

x + y = 23..... (i)

Since the goat Possesses Two Pair of Legs... Which is a Total of 4 Legs... We say Let its Contribution be 4x.

The Chicken has Only a Pair Of Legs...Which is a total of 2 legs.... We say let its contribution be 2y

4x + 2y = 74 .....(ii)

BRINGING BOTH EQUATIONS TOGETHER.

x + y = 23

4x + 2y = 74

From Eqn i

x= 23 - y

Substitute into eqn ii

4(23 - y ) + 2y = 74

92 - 4y + 2y = 74

92 - 2y = 74

2y = 92 - 74

2y = 18

y= 9.

Substitute y into any of the eqns to get x

x + y = 23

x + 9=23

x = 23 - 9

x = 14

This simply proves that there are 14 Goats and 9 Chickens!!!.

HAVE A GREAT DAY!

What is the surface area of the rectangular prism below?
Andrew [12]

Answer:

B ( 432 units^2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Total surface area= 2*(6*6)+ 4*(15*6)

There are 2 squares at each end of the same size so total area will be 2*(6*6)

If we look at the rectangles( bottom, top and the sides), we can see that all are of same dimensions and there are 4 of them so it's 4*(15*6)

In short, total surface area= 2*(6*6)+ 4*(15*6) = 432 units^2
