A farmer notes that in a field full of horses and geese there are 36 heads and 106 feet. How many of each animal are there?

17 horses and 19 geese

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of horses and y be the number of geese

We know that, horses have four feet and geese have 2 feet

It is given that

x+y=36 (i)

and

4x+2y=106 (ii)

Solve the two equations simultaneously by substitution,

From equation (i)

y=36-x (iii)

Substitute y with 36-x in equation (ii)

4x+2(36-x)=106

4x+72-2x=106

4x-2x=106-72

2x=34

x=17

Then

Substitute x=17 to equation (iii)

y=36-17=19

x=17, y=19

We therefore have 17 horses and 19 geese

the fist one is not equalvalent but i think th second one isand the third isnt definetly or the last one is i think. hope this !

step-by-step explanation:

i think there was a typo. you wrote pat brings 3 quarts of ice-cream to the party. each serving of ice-cream is 1 6 quart. how many total servings of ice-cream does pat bring to the party? i think the bold is supposed to be 1/6. so 1 quart of ice cream = 6 servings. 6 * 3 = 18.
