Answer:
27 chickens
Step-by-step explanation:
A chicken farmer also has cows for a total of 30 animals
Both animals have a total of 66 legs
Let a represent the number of chicken
Let b represent the number of cows
a + b= 30........equation 1
Since a chicken has only two legs and a cow has four leg then, the expression can be represented as
2a + 4b= 66........equation 2
From equation 1
a + b= 30
a = 30-b
Substitute 30-b for a in equation 2
2a + 4b= 66
2(30-b) + 4b= 66
60 - 2b + 4b= 66
60 + 2b= 66
2b= 66-60
2b= 6
b= 6/2
b= 3
Substitute 3 for b in equation 1
a + b = 30
a + 3=30
a= 30-3
a= 27
Hence the farmer has 27 chickens
Answer:
Children ticket cost $30 and adult ticket costs $40.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
x = price of a child ticket
y = price of an adult ticket
According to given statement;
3x+2y=170 Eqn 1
4x+6y=360 Eqn 2
Multiplying Eqn 1 by 3
3(3x+2y=170)
9x+6y=510 Eqn 3
Subtracting Eqn 2 from Eqn 3
(9x+6y)-(4x+6y)=510-360
9x+6y-4x-6y=150
5x=150
Dividing both sides by 5
Putting x=30 in Eqn 1
3(30)+2y=170
90+2y=170
2y = 170-90
2y = 80
Dividing both sides by 2
Hence,
Children ticket cost $30 and adult ticket costs $40.
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
12/2=6
replace x with 12
Slope = "rise over run" the difference in y values divided by the difference in x values
= 6/-3 = -2 = m. It's negative because as x increases, y decreases
plug that into the point slope formula, with either point. generally use the most simple point
y-h= m(x-k) where m= -2 and (k,h) = (2,-2)
y+2 = -2(x-2)
simply if you want
Y = -2x +4 -2 = -2x +2
or
2x +y = 2
