John keeps chickens and rabbits in his fenced backyard. He counts a total of 32 heads and a total of 72 legs in his backyard. Write and solve a system of equations in order to find: How many chickens are in John's backyard? Chickens How many rabbits are in John's backyard? Rabbits

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

System of Equations

c + r = 32 ..... Equation 1

2c + 4r = 72......... Equation 2

We have 28 chickens and 4 rabbits

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of chickens be represented by c

The number of rabbits be represented by r

From the question, John counts:a total of 32 heads

32 heads = a total of 32 animals

Hence:

c + r = 32....... Equation 1

c = 32 - r

Also, John counts:

A total of 72 legs in his backyard.

Chickens have: 2 legs

Rabbits have: 4 legs

Hence:

2c + 4r = 72......... Equation 2

System of Equations is:

c + r = 32 ..... Equation 1

2c + 4r = 72......... Equation 2

Lets us substitute 32 - r for c in Equation 2

2(32 - r) + 4r = 72

64 - 2r + 4r = 72

Collect like terms

- 2r + 4r = 72 - 64

2r = 8

r = 8/2

r = 4

This means we have 4 rabbits

Note:

c = 32 - r

r = 4

c = 32 - 4

c = 28

Hence, we have 28 chickens

Jamal hiked on two trails. The first trail was 8 1 3 miles long, and the second trail was 1 3 5 times as long as the first trail. How many miles did Jamal hike? Enter your answer as a mixed number in simplest form.

Answers

Answer:Total distance( miles ) covered by Jamal =21 2/3 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

first trail = 8 1/3 miles long

2nd trail = 1 3/5 times as long as the first

Therefore the  distance walked in the  2nd trail is  1 3/5  x 8 1/3

changing to improper fraction and solving  

=8/5 x 25/3= 40/3

The distance hiked by Jamal in the second trail = 40/3=13 1/3

Step 2

Total distance( miles ) covered by Jamal = first trail +2nd trail

= 8 1/3 + 13 1/3 =21 2/3 miles

Answer:

21 2/3 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

First trail = 8 1/3 miles long

Second trail = 1 3/5 times as long as the first trail

= 1 3/5 × 8 1/3

= 8/5 × 25/3

= 40 / 3

= 13 1/3 miles

How many miles did Jamal hike?

Total miles hiked = First trail + Second trail

= 8 1/3 miles + 13 1/3 miles

= 25/3 + 40/3

= 25+40/3

= 65/3

= 21 2/3 miles

Jamal hiked 21 2/3 miles

Answers

Answer:

No, it is not

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to check if the lenghts given is that of a right angle triangle

For a right angle triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the two other sides

The hypotenuse represents the longest side

So 27^2 = 14^2 + 23^2

The difference between these is 4, and as such the triangle is not a right angled

Answer:

m equals StartFraction y minus b Over x EndFraction

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard equation of a line is expressed as;

y = MX+b where;

m is the slope

cmb is the intercept

We are to get the equivalent expression for finding the slope.

Make m the subject of the formula to get this as shown;

From the equation;

y =MX+b

Subtract c from both sides;

y-b = MX+b-b

MX = y-b

Divide through by x;

mx/x = (y-b)/x

m = (y-b)/x

find the zeros​

Answers

Answer:

x = 2, 1 + 3i, 1 − 3i

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the Roots (Zeros)

x^4 − 6x^3 + 22x^2 − 48x + 40

Set x^4 − 6x^3 + 22x^2 − 48x + 40 equal to 0. x^4 − 6x^3 + 22x^2 − 48x + 40 = 0

Solve for x.

Factor the left side of the equation.

Factor x^4 − 6x^3 + 22x^2 − 48x + 40 using the rational roots test.

(x − 2) (x^3 − 4x^2 + 14x − 20) = 0

 Factor x^3 − 4x^2 + 14x − 20 using the rational roots test.

(x − 2) (x − 2) (x2 − 2x + 10) = 0

 Combine like factors.

(x − 2)2 (x^2 − 2x + 10) = 0

If any individual factor on the left side of the equation is equal to 0, the entire expression will be equal to 0.

(x − 2)^2 = 0

x^2 − 2x + 10 = 0

 Set (x − 2)^2 equal to 0 and solve for x.

Set (x − 2)^2 equal to 0.

 (x − 2)^2 = 0

Solve (x − 2)^2 = 0 for x.

x = 2

 Set x^2 − 2x + 10 equal to 0 and solve for x.

Set x^2 − 2x + 10 equal to 0. x^2 − 2x + 10 = 0

Solve x^2 − 2x + 10 = 0 for x.

Use the quadratic formula to find the solutions.

−b ± (√b^2 − 4 (ac) )/2a

Substitute the values a = 1, b = −2, and c = 10 into the quadratic formula and solve for x.

2 ± (√(−2)^2 − 4 ⋅ (1 ⋅ 10))/2 ⋅ 1

Simplify.

Simplify the numerator.

  x =    2 ± 6i/ 2.1

Multiply 2 by 1

 x =  2 ± 6i/2⋅1

 Simplify

  2 ± 6i/2  

   x = 1 ± 3i

The final answer is the combination of both solutions.

x = 1 + 3i, 1 − 3i

The final solution is all the values that make (x − 2)2 (x2 − 2x + 10) = 0 true.

x = 2, 1 + 3i, 1 − 3i

The solutions to the equation f(x) = g(x) are -2 and 1. Iff and g are graphed on the same coordinate plane, which statement must be true?
The functions will intersect at x = -2 and x = 1.
The functions will intersect at y = -2 and y = 1.
Both functions will have y-intercepts at 2 and 1.
Both functions will have x-intercepts at -2 and 1.

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is;

The function will intersect at x = -2 and x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The question parameters are

The functions in the question are f(x) and g(x)

The solution to the equation f(x) = g(x) are -2, and 1

Given that the equations, f(x) and g(x), are both given in values of x, their solution will be the x values that satisfies both functions

Therefore, the functions will intersect (have the same values of f(x) and g(x)) at the points of the solutions, which are given as x = -2, and x = 1

The statement that should be true is the function will intersect at x = -2 and x = 1.

Given that,

The solutions to the equation f(x) = g(x) are -2 and 1. If f and g are graphed on the same coordinate plane.

Based on the above information, the following information should be considered:

As the solutions represent x values that satisfied the both functions. Also, the functions should intersect that contains the same value i.e. x = -2 and x = 1.

Therefore, we can conclude that the first option is correct.

Answers

Answer:

Aimee can save $24 by buying tickets at the lower price that is at the theater.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to find the amount she would spent by buying tickets at the theater and online by using a rule of three:

Theater:

60→8

x  ←24

x=(60*24)/8=180

Online:

51→6

x ←24

x=(51*24)/6=204

Now, you need to calculate the difference:

$204-$180=$24

According to this, the answer is that Aimee can save $24 by buying tickets at the lower price that is at the theater.

Answer:

Aimee can save $24 by buying tickets at the lower price that is at the theater.
