There are 16 animals in a farmhouse. Some of them are chickens and the others are cows. Altogether, these animals have 60 legs. How many chickens and how many cows are in the farmhouse? -- Which two equations would you use to solve this problem? Chickens have 2 legs and cows have 4 legs.

Please mark as brainliest!!

There are 2 chickens and 14 cows.

Equations:

2x + 4y = 60

x + y = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 2y = 32

Substituting now:

32 + 2y = 60

2y = 28

y = 14

x = 16 - 14 = 2

7

step-by-step explanation:

i'm assuming you need to figure out how many campers go into each tent.

i got the answer by:

24+4=28

28/4=7
