There are 13 chickens and pigs in the barn. There are 40 legs in all (each chicken has two legs and each pig has four legs).
Use substitution to solve the linear system of equations and
determine how many chickens, x, and pigs, y there are.
Express the solution as an ordered pair (x, y).

(6, 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y= 13

2x+4y= 40 ⇒ x+2y = 20 ⇒ 13-y +2y= 20 ⇒ y= 20-13= 7

x= 13-y= 13-7= 6

chickens= 6

pigs= 7

hope this !

hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:

the domain is the set { -2, 0, 2, 3}

discussion:

the domain is the set of x values in the ordered pairs (x,y). taking the x, or first component, of each ordered pair gives   -2, 0, 2, 3.
