a farmer has sheep and hen .the sheep and hen together have 100heads and 356 legs .how many sheep and hens does the farmer have?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

22 hens and 78 sheep

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of hens = x

Number of sheep = y

Total heads = 100

x +  y = 100      --------------------(I)

 x = 100 - y

Number of legs of 'x' hen = 2*x = 2x

Number of legs of 'y' sheep = 4*y = 4y

total legs = 356

2x + 4y =  356 -----------------------(II)

Substitute x = 100 -y in equation (II)

2(100 - y) + 4y = 356

2*100 - 2*y + 4y = 356

200 - 2y + 4y    = 356 {Combine like terms}

        200  + 2y = 356          {Subtract 200 from both sides}

                   2y = 356 - 200

                  2y = 156       {Divide both sides by 2}

                    y = 156/2

                  y = 78

Plugin  y = 78 in equation (I)

x + 78 = 100

       x = 100 - 78

       x = 22

22 hens and 78 sheep

Answers

Answer:

x= -1 and y= -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

(-1,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

-6x+5y=1

6x+4y=-10

Add the two equations together to eliminate x

-6x+5y=1

6x+4y=-10

---------------------

9y     = -9

Divide by 9

9y/9 = -9/9

y= -1

Substitute back into one of the equations to find x

-6x+5y=1

-6x +5(-1) = 1

-6x -5 = 1

Add 5 to each side

-6x -5+5 = 1+5

-6x = 6

Divide by -6

-6x/-6 = 6/-6

x = -1

One way to solve the quadratic equation x2  = 9 is to subtract 9 from both sides to get one side equal to 0: x2  – 9 = 0. The expression on the left can be factored:

(x + 3)(x – 3) = 0. Using the zero factor property, you know this means x + 3 = 0 or x – 3 = 0, so x = −3 or 3

C) 9100 square units

D) 91 square units

Answers

Answer:

42 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the diagram attached

Area of the diagram = Area of the triangle + Area of rectangle

Area of rectangle = Length * Width

Area of rectangle = 3 * 6

Area of rectangle = 18 square units

Area of triangle = 1/2 * base * height

Get the base of the tringle using the pythagoras theorem;

b^2 = 10^2-6^2

b^2 = 100 - 36

b^2 = 64

b = 8units

height = 6 units

Area of the triangle = 1/2 * 8 * 6

Area of the triangle = 48/2

Area of the triangle  = 24 square units

Area of the figure = 18+24

Area of the figure = 42 square units

Which number is in the solution set of this equation? 7x − 9 = 40

Answers

Answer: the answer is 7

Step-by-step explanation: add 9 to both sides, eliminating -9 so now you have 7x=49 divide both by 7 and you get x= 7 check it by inputing 7 for x, 7(7)-9=40

7(7)=49 next 49-9= 40

it checks out, so x= 7

Answer:

201.06

Step-by-step explanation:

A=πr2=π·82≈201.06193

Answer:

201.14 ≈ 201 unit²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of circle = πr², where π is either 3.14 or 22/7 or 355/113. Mostly it is 22/7.

=> area of circle = (22/7) (8)² unit²

=> area of circle = (22 x 64)/7 unit²

=> area of circle = 201.14 unit²

If we take π = 3.14

=> area of circle = (3.14)(8)² = 200.96 unit²

find the 9th term of the geometric sequence 6,-24,96...

Answers

Answer:

A9 = 393216

Step-by-step explanation:

the first thing that will help you solve this question is finding the common ratio between each terms

the first thing that I like to do that usually helps is to take the second term (-24) and divide it by the first term (6) --> this will usually help you spot the common ratio fairly quickly

in your case, the common ratio is -4

- you can also check this by following my note above and then multiplying the second term by the common ratio to see if it matches the third term, which it does!

so now you can go about this two different ways

1. solve directly for the 9th term

2. use the nth term formula for geometric sequences

METHOD 1:

if you continue to multiply by -4 to solve for each term you would end up with:

6, -24, 96, -384, 1536, -6144, 24576, -98304, 393216

and you will recieve 393216 as your answer

METHOD 2:

the nth term formula is An = A1*r^(n-1)

where An = the nth term of the sequence

A1 = first term of the sequence (6)

and r = common ratio

using this formula, you would get:

A9 = 6(-4)^8

A9 = 393216

I hope this helped :)

A toy manufacturer is shipping its newest product, an interactive talking globe, to a major toy store. The packaging for the globe is a rectangular prism that measures 2512 2512 inches high, 18 inches long, and 18 inches wide. The boxes for the globes are packaged into shipping crates that hold 8 globes each. What is the minimum volume of one shipping crate? Explain your answer in the space provided.

Answers

Answer:

6 511 104 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have 1 crate and 8 boxes fit into one crate.

So, volume of one crate, V' = 8 × volume of 1 box, V

Since the box is a rectangular prism of sides 2512 inches high, 18 inches long, and 18 inches wide, its volume, V = lwh where l = length of prism, h = height of prism and w = width of prism.

So, V = lwh = 18 in × 18 in × 2512 in = 813 888 in³

So, V' = 8 × 813 888 in³ = 6 511 104 in³

So, the minimum volume of the crate is 6 511 104 in³
