Answer:

2a + 4b = 44

a+b=15

Step-by-step explanation:

Call a the number of chickens, b the number of horses

We have: 2a + 4b = 44

                a + b = 15

               => 2(a+b) = 30

               <=> (2a + 4b) - (2a + 2b) = 14

                     2b = 14

                  => b = 7

                  => a = 8

So 8 chickens, 7 cows.

Solve the compound inequality 4x – 7 &gt; 5 or 5x + 4 ≤ –6
bija089 [108]

Answer:

inequality form: x \leq -2 or x > 3

interval notation form: (-∞,-2] ∪ (3,∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

I attached a picture that shows all the work. You begin by isolating then solving for x on both sides. Then form a solution using the information found out about x. For example, you can combine the found inequalities for x to solve that x must be GREATER than 3 while being LESS than -2. Using that you can form an line and make a line. Remember, when writing in interval notation form you always begin from the left to the right (in reference) to the number line.
