Answer:

120 for oxen, 80 for cows, 60 for calves

o = 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

3o + 4x + 6c = 260

x = 2c

o = 2x

6x + 4x + 3x = 260

13x = 260

260 / 13 = 20

3o = 6x = 120

4x = 80

6c = 3x = 60

o = 2x

Find the vertices and foci of the hyperbola with equation quantity x plus 5 squared divided by 36 minus the quantity of y plus 1

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

Vertices: (1,-1), (-11, -1); Foci: (-15, -1), (5, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Center at (-5,-1) because of the plus 5 added to the x and the plus 1 added to the y.

a(squared)=36 which means a=6 and a=distance from center to vertices so add and subtract 6 from the x coordinate since this is a horizontal hyperbola, which is (1,-1), (-11,-1). From there you dont need to find the focus since there is only one option for this;

Vertices: (1,-1), (-11, -1); Foci: (-15, -1), (5, -1)

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (-8,-6) and (3, – 6)?

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

y=-6

Step-by-step explanation:

The y value isn't changing when the x value does. This means there is no rate of change or gradient. So in y=mx+c m=0 so we get y=c, c is always -6.
