Using a system of equations, it is found that:

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

This question is solved using a system of equations. I am going to say that:

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

Thus:

[tex]x + y = 24 \rightarrow y = 24 - x[/tex]

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

Thus:

[tex]2x + 4y = 80[/tex]

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

Number of chicken:

Since [tex]y = 24 - x[/tex]

[tex]2x + 4y = 80[/tex]

[tex]2x + 4(24 - x) = 80[/tex]

[tex]2x + 96 - 4x = 80[/tex]

[tex]2x = 16[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{16}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x = 8[/tex]

There are 8 chickens in the yard.

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

Number of pigs:

[tex]y = 24 - x = 24 - 8 = 16[/tex]

There are 16 pigs in the yard.

Arc KN = 201°

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall: According to the tangent-secant exterior angle theorem, the measure of the vertex angle formed at an external point where a tangent and a secant meet outside a circle is ½ of the difference between the intercepted major and minor arcs.

Applying this to the problem given, we have:

m<L = ½(Arc KN - Arc KM)

m<L = 70° (given)

Arc KN = ?

Arc KM = 61°

Substitute

70° = ½(Arc KN - 61°)

2*70° = Arc KN - 61°

140° = Arc KN - 61°

140° + 61° = Arc KN

201° = Arc KN

Arc KN = 201°

PLEASE, forgive me but I answered this and hopefully what I see is correct. I’m really sorry if this weren’t the real measurements!

Answer:

192 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area questions often include the net for easy answering. All you do is just find the area of each face and add them all up:

As you can see, all triangles in this net of a pyramid are the same, so once we find the area of one triangle, we’ll just multiply by 4:

FIND AREA OF ONE TRIANGLE (1/2 x b x h)

1/2 x 8 x 12 = 48 square inches

MULTIPLY BY 4 for SURFACE AREA:

48 x 4 = 192

so the SA is 192 square inches!

Answer:

The base is 12 the height is 8.

Using the formula of finding the area of a triangle: BH x 1/2

8 x 12 x 1/2 = 48 Area of one triangle.

Since there are 4 equilateral triangles we multiply the area of one triangle 4 times since they are all equal.

48 x 4 = 192 in2 is your surface area

∠ ELM = 149°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ KLM = ∠ KLE + ∠ ELM  , substitute values

17x - 1 = 20 + 15x - 1

17x - 1 = 15x + 19 ( subtract 15x from both sides )

2x - 1 = 19 ( add 1 to both sides  )

2x = 20 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 10

Then

∠ ELM = 15x - 1 = 15(10) - 1 = 150 - 1 = 149°

2 per team and 2 left

Step-by-step explanation:

10 can't split into 4 evenly so, you can only give 2 to each team causing there to be 2 left.

4*2 = 8

10-8 = 2

=========================================================

Work Shown:

SA = surface area of the rectangular prism (aka block or box)

SA = 2*(LW + LH + WH)

SA = 2*(8*3 + 8*1 + 3*1)

SA = 2*(24 + 8 + 3)

SA = 2*(35)

SA = 70 square feet

This is the amount of wrapping paper you would need to cover all six sides of the box. This assumes that there are no gaps or overlaps.

Answer: 4 8/10m

Explanation:

Total Ribbon = 24m

Total children = 5

Ribbon each student gets = 24÷5

= 4.8

Now 4.8 = 48/10

4 8/10m is the mixed fraction

So each child will get 4 8/10m ribbon

If five children share 24m of ribbon equally then each children gets [tex]4\frac{4}{5}[/tex] of ribbon.

A division is a process of splitting a specific amount into equal parts.

Given that five children share 24m of ribbon equally.

We have to find the amount of ribbon each children gets.

To find this we have to divide the length of the ribbon with the number of children.

Twenty four divided by five.

24 is the dividend and five will be the divisor

24/5

Now we have to write this in mixed fraction

[tex]4\frac{4}{5}[/tex]

Hence, if five children share 24m of ribbon equally then each children gets [tex]4\frac{4}{5}[/tex] of ribbon.

alright I can help!

so to find the two values of x that are roots of the equation we need to put the variables all on one side so that we can set up the quadratic formula.

3x^2+2x-5=0 (the -3x^2 becomes positive when moved across the equal sign)

now we can set up the quadratic formula. the equation is x= (-b+-(sqrt of b^2 -4ac))/ 2a

so now we just plug in our variables.

x= (-2+-(sqrt of 2^2 -4×3×-5))/ 2×3

x= (-2+-8)/6

now we just seperate the equations so that we have the two roots. and then just solve!

x= (-2-8)/6 -> x= -5/3

x= (-2+8)/6 -> x=1

Answer:

x = 1, y = −1

x = 5/2, y = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

y = 2x² − 6x + 3 ........ (1)

y = x − 2 ...... (2)

We can obtain the solutions to the equation as follow:

y = 2x² − 6x + 3 ........ (1)

y = x − 2 ...... (2)

Substitute the value of y in equation 2 into equation 1

y = 2x² − 6x + 3

y = x − 2

2x² − 6x + 3 = x − 2

Rearrange

2x² − 6x − x + 3 + 2 = 0

2x² − 7x + 5 = 0

Solve by factorization

Obtain the product of 2x² and 5. The result is 10x².

Find two factors of 10x² such that their sum will result to −7x.

The factors are −2x and −5x.

Replace −7x in the equation above with −2x and −5x as shown below:

2x² − 2x − 5x + 5 = 0

2x(x − 1) − 5(x − 1) = 0

(x − 1)(2x − 5) = 0

x − 1 = 0 or 2x − 5 = 0

x = 1 or 2x = 5

x = 1 or x = 5/2

Substitute the value of x into equation 2 to obtain y

y = x − 2

x = 1

y = 1 − 2

y = −1

x = 5/2

y = x − 2

y = 5/2 − 2

y = (5 − 4)/2

y = 1/2

SUMMARY:

x = 1, y = −1

x = 5/2, y = 1/2
