Farmer bob has pigs and chickens. he has 37 animals, and there are 124 legs among them altogether. how many chickens does bob have? a. 25 b. 4 c. 12 d. –4

For this case we have that the pigs have 4 legs while the hens have 2.

We propose a system of equations:

x: Variable representing the number of pigs

y: Variable representing the number of chickens

We multiply by -4 the first equation:

We add the equations:

So, there are 12 chickens.

There are 25 pigs.

25 pigs

12 chickens

Option C

3. (5x + 1) - (-10x + 6)

simplify the answer choice. combine like terms. remember to distribute the negative to the terms inside the second parenthesis. also remember that two negatives = one positive, and one of each sign = negative.

- (-10x + 6) = + 10x - 6

simplify. combine like terms:

5x + 1 + 10x - 6

5x + 10x + 1 - 6

15x - 5

∴ it is your answer
