Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : The total number of lions and peacocks in a certain zoo
is 50.
And the total number of their legs is 140.
To Find : The number of lions and peacocks in the zoo.
Let, us assume that the number of lions be "x"
And the number of peacocks be "y".
According to the question :-
x + y = 50
x = 50 - y ---- ( 1 )
Therefore, the total number of legs = 140.
So, lion having 4 legs.
And peacock have 2 legs.
According to the question equation will be :-
4x + 2y = 140
( solving this equation) ( And put the value of "x" in this equation )
{ x = 50 - y ( eq1 ) }
4(50 - y) + 2y = 140
200 - 4y + 2y = 140
2y = 60
y = 30
∴ The value of y = 30.
Now, from equation ( 1 ) :-
x = 50 - y ( put the value of "y" here )
x = 50 - 30
x = 20
∴ The value of x = 20.
ATLAST I AM CONCLUDING WHOLE ANSWER ( final answers ) :-
The total number of lions(x) = 20
And
the total number of peacocks(y) = 30.
