Let h = the number of horses in the field
Let c = number of cows in the field
There are 2 more horses than cows in the field. Therefore
h = c + 2
or
c = h - 2 (1)
There are 15 animals in the field. Therefore
h + c = 15 (2)
Substitute (1) into (2).
h + (h - 2) = 15
2h - 2 = 15
Answer:
The correct equation is
2h - 2 = 15
Answer:
yes
Step-by-step explanation:
This relation is a function
Each input value goes to only one output value so the relation is a function
(-1,5)(2,4)
slope = (4 - 5) / (2 - (-1) = -1/3
y = mx + b
slope(m) = -1/3
use either of ur points (2,4)...x = 2 and y = 4
now sub and find b, the y int
4 = -1/3(2) + b
4 = -2/3 + b
4 + 2/3 = b
12/3 + 2/3 = b
14/3 = b
so ur equation is : y = -1/3x + 14/3....however, this is not ur answer because it is not in standard form.
y = -1/3x + 14/3
1/3x + y = 14/3....multiply both sides by 3
x + 3y = 14 <=== standard form
1. -10/9
2. 2/5
3. -2/5
4. 3/5
5. 1/10
6. -10/3
