In Aunt Peggy’s backyard there are cows and chickens. There are 20 more chickens than cows. The total number of legs is 130. How many chickens and how many cows are there? (Each cow has 4 legs, each chicken has 2 legs.)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

There's 15 cows and 35 chickens.

Step-by-step explanation:

Take 20 and multiply it by 2. The answer is 40. Then subtract 40 from 130. The answer will be 90. The cow has double the amount of legs than the  chicken, so the cow is equivalent to 2 chicken. Divide 90 by 3. The answer is 30. Then divide 30 by 2 the answer is 15. Add 15 and 20 and the answer is 35 chickens. Divide 30 by 2 and the answer is 15.

You will get 35 chicken and 15 cows as your answer. Happy Election Night, and I hope this helps! ;)

The dividend is 5 1/6

The divisor is 5 1/6

The dividend is second number in this equation.

The quotient is correct.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

the dividend divided by the divisor equals the quotient

The dividend is [tex]5\frac{1}{6}[/tex] and the divisor is [tex]2\frac{5}{12}[/tex] and the quotient is [tex]2\frac{4}{29}[/tex]. Therefore, option A is the correct answer.

The given equation is [tex]5\frac{1}{6}\div2\frac{5}{12} =2\frac{4}{29}[/tex].

What is the division?

The division is one of the basic arithmetic operations in math in which a larger number is broken down into smaller groups having the same number of items.

Here,

[tex]5\frac{1}{6}\div2\frac{5}{12} =2\frac{4}{29}[/tex]

⇒ 31/6 ÷ 29/12 = 62/29

⇒ 31/6 × 12/29 = 62/29

⇒ 62/29 = 62/29

Here, the dividend = [tex]5\frac{1}{6}[/tex] and the divisor = [tex]2\frac{5}{12}[/tex] and the quotient = [tex]2\frac{4}{29}[/tex]

Therefore, option A is the correct answer.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is the difference in y values over the difference in x values

another way to look at it is [tex]\frac{rise}{run}[/tex]

If the slope is 0.28, that means that

[tex]rise = 0.28(run)[/tex]

We're told that the section rises by 1 unit

The number of candies in the box is between 80 and 100. It is possible to divide all the candies among 2, 3 or 5 children. How many candies are in the box?

Answers

Answer:

90

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of candies can be divided among 2, 3, or 5 children so that is the same as saying: the number of candies must be divisible by 2, 3, and 5. In order for a number to be divisible by 5, it must end in 0 or 5 so we know the number of candies must end in 0 or 5. For a number to be divisible by 2, the number must end in an even number. 5 is not an even number so we know the number of candies must end in 0. If a number is divisible by 3, the digits added are divisible by 3. Go through each number(80, 90, 100) and see which one is divisible by 3. 90 is divisible by 2, 3, and 5.

Proof that 90 is divisible by 2, 3, and 5:

90 ÷ 2 = 45

90 ÷ 3 = 30

90 ÷ 5 = 18

The results are all whole numbers.

Mr. Hon purchases a new car every 4 years. Ms. Jasper purchases a new car every 6 years. They both purchased new cars this year. When will they next both purchase new cars in the same year?

Answers

Answer:

12 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Mr. Hon purchases a new car every 4 years. Ms. Jasper purchases a new car every 6 years.

Assuming that they purchase new cars together after n years.

So, n must a multiple of 4 as well as multiple 6, i.e the number n is the lowest multiple (LCM) of 4 and 6.

As LCM od 4 and 6 is 12, so n=12.

Hence, after 12 years they will purchase news cars together.

A computer store buys a computer system at a cost of ​$572.40. The selling price was first at $954​, but then the store advertised a 20% markdown on the system. Answer parts a and b.

Answers

Answer:

The sale price is $763.20

The price for club members is $610.56

The current selling price is $763.20, and the cost to members with an additional  10% reduced rate is $686.88.

What is a percentage?

A percentage is a ratio or number that may be expressed as a fraction of one hundred. And the sign for it is "%."

Given, a computer store buys a computer system at a cost of ​$572.40.

And the selling price was first at $954​, but then the store advertised a 20% markdown on the system.

To find the current sale price:

Current sales price;

use percentage formula,

= $954 - (20% × $954)

= $954 - (0.2 × $954)

= $954 - $190.80

= $763.20

To find the cost to club members at 10% additional reduced price:

use percentage formula,

= $763.20 - (10% × $763.20)

= $763.20 - (0.1 × $763.20)

= $763.20 - $76.32

= $686.88

Therefore, the current sale price is $763.20, and it will cost $686.88 to the members.

Step-by-step explanation:

6x-3 and 75 are not equal to each other. If you look closer you can see that 75 is an acute angle making it less than 90 degrees and 6x-3 is an obtuse angle meaning it is bigger than 90 degrees. Therefore you add both 75 and 6x-3 to get 180 because 180 is equal to a straight line and an acute angle and an obtuse angle both form a straight angle when together. So your problem would be 75+(6x-3)=180

Write the equation of a line passing through the given point that is
perpendicular to the given line. 3.x – 8y = 16; (-3, 1)

Answers

Answer:

-8x-21=3y or -8/3x-7=y or 8x+y+21=0

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the slope of 3x-8y=16.

3x-16=8y (divide both sides by 8 so that y is isolated)

3/8x-2=y The slope is 3/8. The perpendicular slope is the negative reciprocal of 3/8, which is -8/3

Using the points, the equation of the line can be found.

(-8/3=y-1/x-(-3))3(x-(-3) (3(x-(-3) is the common denominator

This equals -8x-24=3y-3, add three to both sides which equals -8x-21=y.

The other answers are written in slope y-intercept form and general form.

Which shows two expressions that are equivalent to (Negative 7) (Negative 15) (Negative 5) Yan is climbing down a ladder. Each time he descends 4 rungs on the ladder, he stops to see how much farther he has to go. If Yan made 8 stops with no extra steps, which expression best shows another way to write the product of the number of ladder rungs that Yan climbed?

Answers

Answer:

(-8) + (-8) + (-8) + (-8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Yan is descending ; we represent his movement as being negative.

Number of rungs descended before stopping = 4

Number of stops = 8

Given that no extra steps was taken ;

Number of ladder rungs descended :

4 rungs per stop for 8 stops

- 4 * 8 = - 32 rungs

Another way to write the product :

Number of stops added in number of rungs descended :

(-8) + (-8) + (-8) + (-8)
