Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
let x no: be cows and y no: be hens,
now, as hens have two legs and cows have 4,
so, 4x+2y= 128 and, x+y=40⇒y=40-x
substituting y in 1 equation,
4x + 2(40-x) = 128
4x + 80 -2x = 128
2x = 48⇒x=24
SUBSTITUTING X IN Y=40-X
⇒y=40-24 = y=16
∴THERE ARE 24 COWS AND 16 HENS
