Multiple chickens and rabbits are in a cage. There are 20 more chickens than rabbits and together, there are 256 legs in all. How many rabbits are there? Please explain

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

c = −108 and r = 118

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know that chickens have  2  legs and rabbits have  4  legs, we can set up a system of equations to solve the problem.

Let  c  be the number of chickens and  r  be the number of rabbits.

for legs, we can write the equation out in word form as:

(number of legs per chicken)(number of chickens) + (number of legs per rabbit)(number of rabbits) = (total number of rabbits)

In algebraic form, this equation would look like this:

2 c  +  4 r  =  256

20+r +r = 256

Now we can use elimination (or substitution) to solve for c and r:

The equation can be reduced by dividing both sides by 2:

c  +  2 r  =  128

Solve for r.

20+r +r = 256

2r = 236

2r/2 = 236/2

r = 118

Substitute and solve for c.

c + 2(118) = 128

c + 236 = 128

c = -108

Write a specific formula to describe the variation:x varies indirectly with the cube root of y;x=3when y= 125

Answers

Answer:

x=15(1/3√y)

Step-by-step explanation:

X varies indirectly with the cube root of y

x=k/3√y

x=3 when y=125

3=k/3√125

3=k/5

3=k(1/5)

k=3÷1/5

k=3×5/1

k=15

x=15(1/3√y)



A spinner has four equal sections, with one letter from the word "MATH" in each section.


Type your response in each blank below.


1. You spin the spinner 20 times. About how many times do you expect it will land on A?



2. You spin the spinner 80 times. About how many times do you expect it will land on something other than A?



Explain your reasoning.

Answers

Answer:

1. 5 times

2. 60 times

Step-by-step explanation:

there is only one a so its 1/4 times 20 and 4 because that is the total

20/4= 5

there is 3 because there is letters that are not a

3/4 times 80

240/4

1. The number of times expected that should be landed on A should be 5 times.

2. The number of times expected should be 60 times.

Calculation of the number of times:

1. Since A spinner has four equal sections, with one letter from the word "MATH" in each section.

So, here the number of times should be

= [tex]20\div 4[/tex]

= 5

2. The number of times should be

[tex]= 3/4 \times 80\\\\= 240\div 4[/tex]

= 60

m arc AJ = 78°

Step-by-step explanation:

If angle A is 101° that means arc LKJ is 202° (the measure of an arc that an inscribed angle intercepts is twice the angle measure).  If arc LKJ is 202° and arc LK is 122°, then arc KJ is 80° (m arc LK + m arc KJ = m arc LKJ).

If angle L is 79°, then the m arc AJK = 158° (the measure of an arc that an inscribed angle intercepts is twice the angle measure). If m arc AJK = 158° and m arc KJ is 80°, then the m arc AJ is 158 - 80 = 78º

They are perpendicular because they have slopes that are opposite reciprocals of −2 and .

Step-by-step explanation:

The given lines are

[tex]2x-4y=8[/tex]

[tex]4x+2y=8[/tex]

Let's rewrite each equation in the form [tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

[tex]2x-4y=8\\2x-8=+4y\\y=\frac{2x-8}{4} \\y=\frac{x}{2}-2[/tex]

[tex]4x+2y=8\\2y=8-4x\\y=\frac{8-4x}{2}\\ y=4-2x[/tex]

Now, let's use the perpendicular rule

[tex]m_{1} \times m_{2} =-1\\\frac{1}{2} \times (-2)=-1 \implies -1=-1[/tex]

As you can observe, the slopes satisfy the perpendicular rule, that means the lines are perpendicular.

find points of discontinuity y=x-8/x^2+6x-7

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You'll need to use parentheses here to remove ambiguity regarding what's in your denominators:

          x - 8                   x - 8

y = ------------------  =  -----------------

      x^2 + 6x - 7        (x + 7)(x - 1)

This last result becomes undefined at x = -7 and x = 1, and thus its graph is discontinuous at those x- values.

The points of discontinuity is x = -7, x = 1

Use parentheses to remove ambiguity considering the denominators

[tex]y=x-8/x^{2} +6x-7[/tex]

= x-8 ÷ (x+7)(x-1)

The result becomes undefined at x = -7

and x = 1,  

thus its graph is discontinuous at those x values.

Therefore the points of discontinuity is x =-7 and x = 1.

Write only the number.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]V=150cm^3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find area of the triangle with a base of 4 cm and a height of 5cm, and then multiply that by the length of the prism of 15cm.

The area of the triangle is given by the  formula:

[tex]A_T=\frac{bh}{2}[/tex]

where b is the base: [tex]b=4cm[/tex] and h is the height: [tex]h=5cm[/tex]

thus, in this case we have:

[tex]A_T=\frac{(4cm)(5cm)}{2}\\ \\A_T=\frac{20cm^2}{2} \\\\A_T=10cm^2[/tex]

And now, the volume will be the area of the triangle multiplied by the length [tex]l=15cm[/tex] of the prism:

[tex]V=A_T*l[/tex]

Substituting the known values:

[tex]V=10cm^2*15cm\\V=150cm^3[/tex]

The volume in cubic centimeters is 150.
