A farmer looks out her window and sees ducks and rabbits. She says to her husband, "I see 36 heads and 80 feet." Assuming she counted correctly, how many ducks did she see

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The number of duck is 32.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of rabbits.

Let y represent the number of ducks

From the question given:

The sum of rabbit and duck is 36 i.e

x + y = 36 .... (1)

The sum of the feets of the rabbit and duck is 80.

Rabbits has 4 legs

Duck has 2 legs

Therefore, the sum their feets (i.e 80) can be written as:

4x + 2y = 80 .... (2)

The equations are:

x + y = 36 .... (1)

4x + 2y = 80 .... (2)

Solving by substitution method:

From equation (1)

x + y = 36

Make x the subject

x + y = 36

x = 36 - y

Substitute the value of x into equation (2)

4x + 2y = 80

x = 36 - y

4(36 - y) + 2y = 80

Clear bracket

144 - 4y + 2y = 80

144 - 2y = 80

Collect like terms

- 2y = 80 - 144

- 2y = - 64

Divide both side by - 2

y = - 64/ - 2

y = 32

Therefore, the number of duck is 32.

Since, T is the mid point of PQ,

[tex] \therefore PT = TQ \\

7x + 9 = 9x - 5\\

9 + 5 = 9x - 7x\\

14 = 2x \\

What is Number system?

A number system is defined as a system of writing to express numbers.

An integer is the number zero, a positive natural number or a negative integer with a minus sign.

We need to find the integer which is greater than -5.

When we look into the number line we get an idea that the numbers with minus values are smaller than the positive values.

The greatest number with minus sign is smaller than the smallest number with minus sign.

-4 is greater than -5.

Not only -4 but the integers -4,-3,-2, -1, 0,1,2..... are greater.

Hence, -4 is greater than -5.

1/2x + 10 = x          Subtract 1/2x from both sides

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve for x by simplifying the equation until we have x isolated on one side.

[tex]\frac{1}{2}x + 7 = x-3[/tex]

Subtract 7 from both sides:

[tex]\frac{1}{2}x = x-10[/tex]

Multiply both sides by -2:

Kevin mowed 12 lawns and earned a total of $60.
Which rate represents the amount of money earned per lawn?

Answers

Answer:

$5

Step-by-step explanation:

$60 earned for moving 12 lawns

Amount of money per lawn is:

$60/12= $5

Answer is amount per lawn is $5

Answer:

$5

or

$5 / 1 lawn

Step-by-step explanation:

The process is quite simple - especially since you already have half of the answer.  The question says money per lawn.  The creator of the problem gave away a lot of the answer.  They already tell us the rate.  Now all ou have to do is plug the numbers in:

Money per lawn

Money / lawns (The slash is used to represent per)

What is the money? $60. So plug that in:

$60 / lawns

How many lawns? 12.  Plug that in:

$60 / 12 lawns

Now, all you have to do is either simplify the fraction or divide the denominator by the numerator - whichever one you prefer.  In that case, the rate can be any of the following:

$5

$5 / 1 lawn

At a baseball game, hot dogs cost $2.25 and drinks cost $1.75. The total cost, t, for h hot dogs and d drinks can be described by the equation t=2.25h+1.75d. If Costas spent $18.25 and bought 5 hot dogs, how many drinks did he buy?

Answers

Answer:

He bought 4 drinks

Step-by-step explanation:

18.25= 2.25(5)+1.75d

18.25= 11.25+ 1.75d

18.25-11.25= 7

7= 1.75d

7/1.75

4=d

Answer:

4 drinks

Step-by-step explanation:

t = 2.25h + 1.75d

T = Total Cost

H = Hotdogs

D = Drinks

We have our total cost, which is $18.25 dollars

18.25 = 2.25h + 1.75d

We know Costas bought 5 hotdogs, so replace h with 5 and multiply :

2.25(5)

==> 11.25

Now that 11.25 dollars has been made, let's see how much money we need left to fit for the drinks.

18.25 - 11.25

==> 7

We need 7 dollars worth of drinks, so divide the cost by the amount we need to have.

7 / 1.75

==> 4

Castos needs to buy 4 drinks.

flying against the wind, a jet travels 4600 miles in 5 hours. flying with the wind, the same jet travels 4200 miles in 3 hours. what is the rate of the jet in still air and what is the rate of the wind?

Answers

Answer:

The rate of the jet in still wind is 1160 MPH and the rate of the wind is 240 MPH.

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance equals rate times time (d = rt)

Against the wind, the rate is:

4600 = r * 5

r = 4600/5 = 920 MPH

With the wind, the rate is:

4200 = r * 3

r = 4200/3 = 1400 MPH

Let W be the rate of the wind in MPH. We know that:

(rate of the jet against the wind) + (rate of the wind) = (rate of the jet with the wind ) - (rate of the wind), so:

920 + W = 1400 - W

2W = 480

W = 240 MPH

And the speed of the jet in still air would be:

1400 - 240 = 1160 MPH

Approximating to the nearest hundredth implies that, only to digits after the decimal point is needed

This is:

191._ _

The third digit after the decimal point will approximated using the approximation rule;

Since, the third digit after the decimal point (3) is not up to 5, it'll be approximated to 0 and added to the second digit (6)

So, we have:

24 - 4 x 2 + 4b = 20 - 16​

Answers

Answer:

b = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for b:

4 b - 4 2 + 24 = 20 - 16

-4×2 = -8:

4 b + -8 + 24 = 20 - 16

Grouping like terms, 4 b - 8 + 24 = 4 b + (24 - 8):

4 b + (24 - 8) = 20 - 16

24 - 8 = 16:

4 b + 16 = 20 - 16

20 - 16 = 4:

4 b + 16 = 4

Subtract 16 from both sides:

4 b + (16 - 16) = 4 - 16

16 - 16 = 0:

4 b = 4 - 16

4 - 16 = -12:

4 b = -12

Divide both sides of 4 b = -12 by 4:

(4 b)/4 = (-12)/4

4/4 = 1:

b = (-12)/4

The gcd of -12 and 4 is 4, so (-12)/4 = (4 (-3))/(4×1) = 4/4×-3 = -3:

Given: P= $2,335.69

r= 4.3%= 0.043

t= 11 years

Then,

[tex]A=2335.69(1+\dfrac{0.043}{365})^{365\times11}\\\\=2335.69(1+0.000117808219178)^{4015}\\\\=2335.69(1.000117808219178)^{4015}\\\\= 2335.69(1.6047566747)\\\\=3748.09044309\approx3748.21\\\\\Rightarrow\ A=\$3748.21[/tex]

Interest earned = A-P

= $3748.21- 2335.69.

Hence, Neal earned $1,412.52 as interest.
