Step-by-step explanation:

let the number of penguins be X and the number of lions be Y. then X=14 and since there are more penguins than lions the equation will be X=Y+6

Substitute 14 instead of X. 14=Y+6

and now shift 6 to the left 14-6=Y

then the answer should be 8lions

Find a fraction equivalent to 5/7 whose squared terms add up to 1184.

bogdanovich [222]

The system of equations of two unknowns is formulated and solved.

$\large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \bf{ \left\{\begin{matrix} \ \ \ \dfrac{x}{y} = \dfrac{5}{7} \\ x^2+y^2 = 1184 \end{matrix}\right. \ \Longrightarrow \ x=\dfrac{5}{7}y } \end{gathered}$}$

$\large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \bf{ \left (\dfrac{5}{7}y \right )^2+y^2=1184\ \Longrightarrow\ 25y^2+49y^2=58016 } \end{gathered}$}$

$\large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \bf{74y^{2}=58016} \end{gathered}$}\\\large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \bf{ \ \ \ \ \ \ y^{2}=784 } \end{gathered}$}\\\large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \bf{ \ \ \ \ \ y=\pm\sqrt{784}=\pm28 } \end{gathered}$}$

$\large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \bf{ x=\dfrac{5}{7}(\pm 28)=\pm 20 } \end{gathered}$}$

The fraction that satisfies the request is $\bf{\dfrac{20}{28}}$ , since in $\bf{\dfrac{-20}{-28}}$ the negative signs are canceled and the first fraction is obtained.

Can someone please give me the perimeter and area answer SHOW WORK

stich3 [128]

Just add up the lengths of the four sides, and you have the perimeter.

The perimeter is:
(4x-7)*2 + (10x^2+4x-2)*2 =
8x-14 + 20x^2+8x-4 =
20x^2 + 16x - 18

What's the difference between 6z and z6

Airida [17]

Simple..

there is a major difference between 6z and $z^{6}$

6z means: 6 times z

and

$z^{6}$ means: z to the power of 6(z*z*z*z*z*z)

An example...

make z=2...plug n chug..

6z----> 6(2)=12
and
$z^{6}$ ---> $2^{6}$ =64

As you can see..there is a major difference.

Thus, your answer.
